The 21-dinner season has officially started: the time for slightly over-the-top theme parties, emotional speeches, and a henhouse full of ladies in your parental home. And whether you are organizing one or have been invited yourself, a good outfit is an unwritten rule that absolutely must not be broken. I can speak from experience when I say that finding an outfit is not for the faint-hearted. Especially not if you are also bound to a theme, because oh dear if you break that, of course. To help all the ladies out, I have selected an online clothing rack of cocktail dresses and matching sets (for those who, like me, prefer more casual chic). From fully sequined and bright pink to pastel yellow and a subtle floral print; for every possible theme there is something to wish for.

Do keep in mind: at such a dinner, the term ‘over the top’ does not exist, so standing out a bit is perfectly fine.
