Starting with Queen Victoria's traditional wedding dress in 1840, the Iconic Wedding Dresses infographic features 100 gowns, and ends with the cape Solange Knowles wore for her 2014 marriage to Alan Ferguson.

Put together by Vashi Diamonds, the drawings undoubtedly provide plenty of inspiration for brides-to-be.

Styles are arranged in alphabetical order, and can be categorized by decade, color, and bride - because stars like Ava Gardner and Elizabeth Taylor, for example, were married more than once.

Audrey Hepburn, for example, features three times on the list. The first wedding dress she had made, for her marriage to businessman James Hanson in 1952, was never actually worn, as the couple called off the wedding before ever making it down the aisle. 

Her second dress, worn when she married her first husband, actor and producer Mel Ferrer, was created by French fashion label Balmain, while the third, a short, pale pink number designed for her wedding to Italian psychiatrist Andrea Dotti, was created by Hubert de Givenchy.

Interestingly, short wedding dresses have proved popular since the Fifties, with miniskirt lengths sported by Audrey Hepburn, Ava Gardner, Cilla Black, Cindy Crawford, Emma Thompson, Jerry Hall, Keira Knighley, Rita Wilson, and Yoko Ono.

Meanwhile the wedding suit is also a favorite alternative to the traditional gown, worn by the likes of Ava Gardner, Bianca Jagger, Elizabeth Taylor, Ellen DeGeneres, Linda Eastman, and Marilyn Monroe. 

One shoulder dresses (Alicia Keys, Gwen Stefani, and Nicole Kidman) are also favored, as are off-the-shoulder styles (Anne Hathaway, Amal Alamuddin, Jacqueline Kennedy, Katie Holmes, and Michelle Obama).

But it seems traditional gowns still reign supreme.

Worn by royals such as Princess Diana, Grace Kelly, Kate Middleton, and Princess Anne; political figures Caroline Kennedy and Chelsea Clinton; as well as A-list stars like Chrissy Teigen and Kim Kardashian, it certainly remains the most popular wedding dress style. 

For the Royal Wedding held at London's Westminster Abbey in 2011, Kate wore a long sleeve gown featuring an intricate lace appliqué bodice, a high-waisted, full-skirted silhouette, and a long, dramatic train to say 'I do' to Prince William.

The iconic wedding dress, which cost more than $400,000 and was created by Alexander McQueen's head designer Sarah Burton, mirrored the gown worn by Grace Kelly, who became Princess Grace of Monaco when she married Ranier III, Prince of Monaco, in 1956.

More than a half a century before Kate said 'I do', Grace wore a similar high-waisted ballgown with a lace bodice and a modest high-neck created by Helen Rose of MGM Studio.

The dress reportedly cost $7,000, which is approximately $60,000 today, in materials and manufacturing, not including the designer's salary.
