Thanks all to who posted about shortening the dress. I have &nbsp;a feeling I may go in that direction.</p> <p>Deborah - I love that you "get' my style so I may shorten the dress by a few inches, nothing too major. There is something to say about retro style but I still want to look updated too.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952536 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 13:00:39 +0000 Deborah 952536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of the things I like about your style is the subtle nod to retro. To my way of thinking this dress would loose something if shortened. The midi length really works with the cut and pattern of the dress. If anything I'd add a bit of a heel. I love it as is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952531 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 12:48:20 +0000 TraceyLiz65 952531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think shortening it would create a better proportion, especially worn with flats . Love the pattern! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952529 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 12:45:07 +0000 Anonymous 952529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dress! I think shortening it a bit would wake it up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952510 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 11:48:13 +0000 Jaime 952510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress, I think I would shorten to just below the knee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952509 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 11:47:25 +0000 Debra 952509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely print and colourway. I think you should take it up a little, just on your knee. This length will work better with a flat shoe too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952505 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 11:40:18 +0000 Raisin 952505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I think this midi length is quite popular now, so I think you could leave it as is. That said, I do find it long on you, and a bit overpowering because of the longness and pattern. I bet it would look good at knee level. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---start-of-another-work-week#post-952501 Mon, 10 Jun 2013 11:36:51 +0000 citygirldc 952501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've decided to wear some of my old dresses again because it's so easy to wear. I've always love this green dress because it's quite flattering on my body&nbsp;but I'm thinking, is it too long? &nbsp; It seems many dresses these days are either maxi's or shorter at the knee (and I don't do maxis).</p> <p>Should I shorten the length or leave it the way it is? &nbsp; </p>
