Tiered says you're ... Ready to Party

Dresses with masses of ruffles give off a flamenco dancer vibe.

This silk satin V-neck gown with silk organza graduating ruffles--from New York-based design team Birnbaum and Bullock--looks fetching with a flower in the bride's hair. The beaded wasitline adds definition.

Sheath says you're ... Modern

Carolyn Bessette Kennedy's simple satin sheath Narciso Rodriguez changed the face of bridal wear. Since her marriage to John F. Kennedy Jr. in 1996, more and more brides have opted for beadless, laceless looks that show off a trim figure. The double-faced silk wool that forms this ivory, bibbed mermaid shift from Vera Wang makes it ideal for early fall nuptials.

Empire Bodice says you're ... Old Fashioned

If the double-wedding scene in Sense and Sensibility is your vision of perfection, then a dress with an empire waist will fulfill your period-romance fantasies.

This silk satin and tulle embroidered empire gown from Reem Acra has a scalloped neckline and off-the-shoulder capped sleeves. Reem Acra "Mon Amour" dress, $7,480.

Halter says you're ... Practical

Halter-strapped bodices show off the shoulders, but unlike strapless dresses, they stay in place without frequent adjustments.

Sleeves says you're ... Modest

Very few women choose dresses with sleeves these days, but they can add a lovely vintage charm to your wedding gown.

Short says you're ... Unconventional

Very few brides choose a knee-length or tea-length dress, but those who do tend to be a bit quirky. Also, as weddings become less formal, dress lengths continue to rise.
