Voila! Here is the purple dress, appropriately shortened and much more flattering, I must say, than the original length, at least on someone my height. It’s amazing what a little nip and tuck can do!
My Outfit:
Hat: Urban Outfitters
Sunglasses: Vintage store in Ballard
Dress: Thrifted (Can’t remember where!)
Necklace: Grandmother’s vintage watch on chain
Belt: Thrifted (Can’t remember where!)
Sweater: Forever 21
Shoes: Vintage Ferragamo heels, thrifted from Beacon’s Closet

I’m your height and find longer lengths sort of swamp me. Great improvement!

I REALLY love this project. Both lengths look great, but I do think your legs look swell in the shorter style. Bravo!
