I was going through my closet and found this print dress, but when I tried it on, it looked a little boring and a too long. Instead of getting rid of it, I thought I would modernize it changing the hemline into a high low! High low is on trend right now and basically is shorter in the front and longer in the back. I really liked the outcome and can't wait to wear it soon.
First, I used a seam ripper to take out the stitches on the front part of the dress. Go a little farther than the side seams. I then folded and played with how much I wanted to shorten the front, which turned out to be about three inches. Next comes pinning, make sure to get the circular hem even.
Match the stitches on the back. This dress had a double row of stitches which I duplicated. Cut off excess fabric and it'll be ready to wear!
