Because I am a very short woman I do have to wear high heels with longer skirts to feel comfortable, shorter allow me to wear flats as well. But I can understand how you feel. I do panic at everything above the knee because I hate to show my knees.^^<br />Is there a large hem allowance inside? Maybe you can undo the hem and re-do it with bias binding, like this you would win a few centimetres.ettehttp://www.parvasedapta.chnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-1781454742846030322014-07-02T10:14:58.087+02:002014-07-02T10:14:58.087+02:00Oh quelle ravisante robe, superbe tenue !

Je préfère aussi lorsqu'elles sont plus longues (au moins au dessous du genou).

I'm self-conscience when it comes to my legs, so I like things well below the knee. I love 50's fashion, that is the best era for me and most comfortable to wear. <br />You and Sylvain look amazing as always. I've purchased a few floral items for spring and summer, so I appreciate how've you've accessorized your beautiful dress. Lovely as always!!

I've been looking for one in black for the Goodwood Revival but have yet to find one, hopefully I will do before September.<br /><br />I do like late 50s and early 60s fashion and I'd wear that length (for me, the length is ok as long as it's below the knee!)Mid Century Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225923078795264979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-32087814758130384732014-06-30T17:28:45.608+02:002014-06-30T17:28:45.608+02:00Gloriously gorgeous dress!!!

The length compliments the fabric and overall tailoring of the piece and is so well suited to summer. That said, as someone who prefer her dresses and skirts to hit at leas a few inches below the knee, I can certainly relate to where you're coming from. A couple of possible workarounds are to add an extension to the hem with lace or a coordinating (solid) fabric, or to layer the dress over a longer similarly coloured skirt (my first choice, as I'm not a fan of altering intact vintage usually) and give it (your outfit) an intentionally layered look.<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-60137346400744646462014-06-30T17:26:08.149+02:002014-06-30T17:26:08.149+02:00I don't think your dress is too short.

I really like the flowers at the nape of your neck peeking out from under the hat. Very pretty. And are your earrings little baskets of flowers?

The dress looks beautiful, not too short - I understand that if you don't feel 100% comfortable you probably won't wear it much, but I really wouldn't worry about that one, it looks perfect still, especially with the bag/hat/shoes to carry it off. I do like late 50s fashion (not all of it) I like my hems to be longer too. I can't believe how short some girls/women wear their skirts these days! I do like shorts of course, but I also like those to have adequate coverage :) Well done to you and Sylvain for another great set of outfits!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-7336111119756916872014-06-30T14:22:34.370+02:002014-06-30T14:22:34.370+02:00Je trouve que cette longueur vous va a ravir, l...Je trouve que cette longueur vous va a ravir, l'imprime également.<br />Cordialement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-48884031239103881802014-06-30T14:16:20.036+02:002014-06-30T14:16:20.036+02:00It's not too short - I think this dress looks ...It's not too short - I think this dress looks lovely on you!! :)Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-31792907973391003902014-06-30T13:58:55.614+02:002014-06-30T13:58:55.614+02:00Absolutely not too short!
