Its always easier to cut a bit off than it is to add to something too short. To add this length to the pattern piece, take the separate dress bottom portion of the pattern and place it 17 (or whatever our preferred length) down from the shorten/lengthen line. Now you can draw your new front pattern pieces. In this case, you want two different hem options for the left and right-hand side of the wrap front because we keep one hem straight and one maintains the original curve. For the curved hem, use the curve of the original pattern piece
