In the US ballroom dresses are typically more easily distinguished from other nationalities. A key trait of American dresses is how they will "flow" more easily than those from other countries. For example, a ballroom dancing costumes usually has at least 2 layers of skirt, as well as other cuts of fabric flowing from the back and neck. Generally in contrast, international ballroom dance dresses are known for a more heavy fabric and feathers. Some American styles also are graced with feathers, but are not the essential accent of the ballroom dress. It seems that most international ballroom gowns are made for appearance from one angle - either they look enchanting from the front or back, but usually not both.

Even so, the style of the ballroom dress very much depends on the type of dance to be performed. For example, the paso doble is a popular type of ballroom dance that includes Spanish culture in the steps. It only makes sense that the dress would symbolize the theme; this dance dress would most probably have sleeves, be decorated with lace, and a ruffled knee-length skirt that twirls easily .

For a more modern ballroom dance, the dress would usually be quite lightweight and move easily with the dancer. A popular look for the dress top is either sleeves or halter-style that can dangle from the shoulders. You will find that strapless-style ballroom dance dresses are not very common probably because of the risk of coming off during a vigorous dance or not even fitting properly for moving about on the dance floor.
