The Best Cocktail Dresses in 2022

Anytime you need a cocktail dress, everything in your closet suddenly seems unworthy. Let’s face it, if we’re going to a fun event, it’s really special to get to wear a new dress, since we haven’t been to so many events in the last couple of years. So for all those cocktail parties you’ve got to attend this season, or summer weddings that seem to pop up before you know it, why not pick up a new dress (or two)? It’ll make getting dressed to go out that much more fun.

Right now, our favorite dresses are romantic but still a little sexy. We’re also loving brighter colors and unexpected patterns, just to make sure we’re keeping it interesting. Plus, sparkles are always a good idea. We love these 14 dresses because they’re so versatile; you can go to any kind of party in these dresses, and you’re guaranteed to make an entrance. From sexy slip dresses to fun feathered styles and classic black dresses, you can’t go wrong with any of these styles. You’re going to want to shop these picks before they’re gone!
