So before I give you a detailed how-to, here are the key speaking points for making a Trillium Dress into a maxi (floor-length dress): Lengthen the skirt pieces so they are long enough Widen the skirt pieces so they don't trip you when you walk The key points to remember if you want it fully lined : the lining does not need pockets the front skirt of the lining does not need to be pleated (that adds bulk at your waist, NO GOOD), so you must trim the sides to make the front skirt the same width as the front bodice if you make the lining the same length as the dress, you can hem the dress over the bottom of the lining if you make the lining shorter than the dress (eg knee-length like I did), you need to finish the bottom edge of the lining and then hand-stitch the bottom corners of the lining to the side seam allowances of the dress so that it stays put
This dress is nicely lined and made from substantial cotton with a summery, striated fabric that feels a bit like linen
The fabric is lace and tulle with a slight stretch, providing ease of movement and a comfortable fit throughout the day
