Maybe I'm a Prude...

...but I find a lot of dresses to be too short for my taste. Or are they just really long shirts? I really don't know, but I have this banded bottom shirt/dress/THING just hanging in my closet.

As many know, it's supposed to be worn like this…

Found here

…which I don't find it very flattering on my figure. Every time I've worn this, I hid the band to make it look like a loose shirt, but it rode up and constantly pulling at my clothes gets annoying fast. Since I like the neckline and how the fabric flows, I decided to remove, loosen and then reattach the entire band.

I cut the band in half and then shortened them to fit the bottom of the shirt. I've successfully replaced the ambiguous article of clothing into a definitive shirt!
