You will just have to review the premium themes and see if one of them has the features and flexibility you desire.

You can visit the Themes Showcase and view premium themes and their features as well as visiting the live demo sites for each one.

I like a few of the premium themes but wasn't sure if I could use them and have the customization they allow if I'm not self hosted.
