Not Too Short
Luckily for Clare, the dress was an appropriate length according to the fingertip test. This meant she could purchase the dress and anticipate the night of her prom. However, she had absolutely no idea just how much havoc the dress she adored would actually cause.
Channeling Marilyn Monroe

She posted photos of her herself and later wrote that she was simply channeling her inner Marilyn Monroe for her big night. She had made certain that her dress met the requirements for the prom before leaving for the prom, just in case.
