After a few false starts, it finally feels like the world is opening up again. My upcoming social calendar is filled with birthday parties, weekend brunches, weddings, and family holidays. I'm ready for it, but my closet is less prepared. As I did a quick scan of my wardrobe, I realized most of my dressy options have been replaced by athleisure and sweat sets—pieces that have carried me through the last two years that I'm now ready to wear less frequently. So if you're like me and wondering how on earth you're going to prepare for this season's events, there are 16 dresses on my Net-a-Porter wish list that will solve our dilemma. Below, you'll find a mix of dresses fit for every occasion. Don't sleep on these—they are bound to sell out.
