It hits right at what I think is the most flattering spot on my own calves, so that makes me adore it all the more. Great job of returning this hem to its (presumably, I doubt it would have been made with a 4" hem from the get go) original length. <br /><br />You look so pretty in this lovely combination of navy and green. <br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277934393505020880.post-331734026104331342014-04-22T06:16:26.323-07:002014-04-22T06:16:26.323-07:00I put a small petticoat in at the long length, but...I put a small petticoat in at the long length, but when it is hemmed correctly I will experiment some more with it:) It's interesting how just this bit of change in length changes the dress style.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16439393534029787165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277934393505020880.post-64195628413825693992014-04-21T17:23:57.790-07:002014-04-21T17:23:57.790-07:00Like everyone else, I'll chime in to agree tha...Like everyone else, I'll chime in to agree that the original length is Have you tried wearing anything beneath it for fullness?

I prefer longer lengths. I'm not a huge fan of my legs, but mainly I like the modesty of the 1950s longer length hemlines. Tea length is a favorite of mine, I wish I could find more with it.seannaapprovedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09546047220109216505noreply@blogger.com
