Ladies you look great with your dresses. I have a vintage wrap dress but it is just too short. But I love it too much to give it away or sell. At recommendations on how to wear it? Thanks!

Oh that's a gorgeous design. Don't get rid of it. If it's too short, I would wear it with black leggings and flats, or heels and pants/jeans - I've just ordered the Gaby tunic and already plan to wear it that way as it will be too short for me as well. Or possibly if you want to be brave :graucho: (although looking at the design around the waist it may not be possible) to chop the skirt part off and make it into a blouse. But you would need an experienced tailor for that. Good luck!

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll keep it as a dress and wear with leggings.
Are the wrap dresses made very short? I am not exactly tall at 5'4 (164 cm) but a lot of the DVF dresses are very short on me!

I'm the same height as you and haven't experienced the length problem, my dresses are Justin, Julian & Kye wraps and on me are all knee length or just slightly above, definitely not 'short'......there have been a few different styles of wraps (not the styles I have) which have nearly purchased for the print then noticed from the description they are a shorter length - perhaps you have one of those? Also if you've purchased second-hand from ebay and the like, it may have been altered possibly? How annoying as I don't think the 'short' wrap looks nice at all....more like a kimono or robe!:p

My ruri and zarita dresses are fine. I tried on the reina but that was too short. I got this one from the DVF shop but did not pay too much attention to the length as I was too excited by the print! I wish the reina was longer though, I love the style!
