+1 to what Bothwell said too.
Given that this happened during work, your employer should have procedures in place for dealing with sexual harassment. That sort of behaviour is totally unacceptable in the workplace (doesn't matter that is happened at a dinner, it was still work). More difficult given this is a client, but you shouldn't have to keep quiet and suffer.

You should definitely bring this up with your employer - they need to have policies in place for this kind of thing. I know it's hard to do, but do it anyway.
I've brought up something similar with my own boss and I when re-read the message I sent him about it I can see how paralysed with doubt and anxiety I was about the whole thing, and how worried I was about being reasonable about it, and it was just... unnecessary. The person who had put me in that position was the unreasonable one, not me. But if I hadn't brought it up, my boss wouldn't have known, and it'd just have been yet another example of some dude creeping on a female colleague while she grits her teeth and accepts it. You shouldn't need to be in that position, client or not.
