Here is the dress originally. It's not so bad, but I felt like it wasn't something I'd wear often. The fabric is so lightweight and flowy, but I felt like the length was weighing it down. This ended up being a fairly simple refashion that I think turned out well!
1. Hemmed dress about 6" shorter. Using these methods.
2. Used excess fabric to create cap sleeves.
Finished!
