If we're going out to a cocktail party, it's fun to feel confident and beautiful in a statement-making, sexy dress. There's nothing better than slipping on an outfit that you feel comfortable in, and while sometimes we feel best in jeans and a t-shirt, or even a bikini, getting dressed up is made all the more fun with the addition of a great cocktail dress.

These are the picks we're loving, from body-conscious midi dresses to slinky minis. They're silky, see-through, and everything in between. If you've got a party, or five million, to go to this Summer, show up and show out in one of these 21 dresses. Plus, they're practically guaranteed to turn heads. Need we say more?
