When deciding what to wear on a date, it's common to end up standing in front of your closet saying to yourself I have nothing to wear. And while a dress is certainly a safe bet for a variety of date-night settings, choosing one that will make you feel both confident and comfortable isn't always easy. When you're stepping out with that special someone, you want to put your best foot forward, but you also want to feel authentically you—wearing a flattering ensemble that showcases your personal style. Since there's no one right date-worthy dress, but instead a range of stunning numbers in different cuts and colors and fabrications, we've rounded up a range of looks we're loving right now. Here are date-night dresses that suit every style so you're guaranteed to feel and look your best.
A mid-length wrap dress is an elegant choice no matter the occasion. A playful floral print provides some lovely detailing.Available in sizes L to 4XL.
Velvet never fails to make a statement, especially in a striking color like silver. The waist-wrap front is super flattering on all body types.Available in sizes 0 to 14.
A little black dress in lace is a classic choice for date night, but this Ganni number—with its mock neckline and lace outlined in cord—is cool girl approved.Available in sizes DK34 to DK42.
A bold red never hurt on date night, and this romantic design bedecked in wispy frills and blooming florals keeps the dress from feeling too serious.Available in sizes FR34 to FR44.
Slip dresses will never go out of style. Princess seams and a knee-grazing hemline make this modern take wonderfully sophisticated and equally cool over a T-shirt or beneath a statement jacket.Available in sizes XS to L.
A three-quarter sleeve is an elegant touch for a more formal outing. The rich emerald green of this velvet dress is flattering on every skin tone.Available in sizes 10 to 18.
A flirty party dress makes for a perfect date-night stand-in. The halterneck silhouette is perfect for those looking to show off their shoulders and the semi-sheer satin jacquard detailing in hand-painted florals make this dress a stunning piece.Available in sizes UK4 to UK16.
Lovers of prints will adore this kimono-inspired dress adorned in moons, stars, and constellations. The pattern is a fresh break from florals and sure to spark a conversation.Available in sizes XS to XL.
For a more formal occasion, a classic mid-length black dress with added wow-factor is just what the doctor ordered. Opening Ceremony puts its fresh spin on the LBD with flouncy ruffled shoulders, a fluted midi hem, and a tactile jacquard finish.Available in sizes XS to L.
