I think Kate has been faced with a tough decision. Does she stick to tradition and go with the heavier, more conservative dress with sleeves and giant train? Or does she stay true to herself and choose a more modern gown that is a little less frilly and maybe (do I even say this) sleeveless?
I think she'll have a combination of both. I am in love with this Priscilla of Boston dress below. I think it can be embellished and personalized (as most royals have done with thier gowns) and have a long train added, but accessoriezed in a more contemporary way. She could add sheer sleeve/top to a gown design like this. Also, I think she'll choose a more sheer veil without the heavy lace work. I could also see it embellished with beautiful crystals for added sparkle. A larger necklace would also look great. For the record, I I think she'll wear a small tiara. Not quite as large a Princess Diana wore on her wedding day, but something with a little sparkle to balance out the look.
Here's a look back at a few other famous royal wedding gowns...
Queen Elizabeth, 1946
Princess Grace of Monaco, 1956
Princess Diana, 1981
Sarah Ferguson - Dutchess of York, 1986
Princess Victoria of Sweden, 2010
What do you think Kate's dress will look like? Do you think she'll be wearing a tiara?

It will not be strapless. Can't do that in the Westminster Abby.....
