Try as you might, your beloved Converse don’t quite make you feel like Beyoncé when you’re on the dance floor, do they? That’s because the right dancing shoe somehow makes your twirls more twirly, your shimmy more shimmery, and — let’s be realistic — your Dougie much, much better than this. 

To set the mood for an evening of giddily fun dancing (we’re talking about ear-to-ear-grinning, spinning-your-partner-like-you’re-10-again, deliriously exhilaratingfun), a proper pair of dance shoes is in order. From stilettos that threaten to outshine you on the dance floor to flats that’ll really help you break it down, we’ve handpicked the best party shoes on the market to get you groovin’ until sunrise.
