How to lengthen?

For the apple picking dress...I'm wondering if anyone can tell me exactly what adjustments I need to make if I want to make a size 2t dress in 3t or 4t length. I'm a little nervous about this dress being short on my somewhat tall 2 year old. I thought it would be as easy as just making the bodice and skirt 3t length, but then I realized that the plackets might need to be adjusted too along with the notches. Maybe I should only lengthen the skirt part?? Does anyone have any suggestions or how have you done it yourself? I would really appreciate it! I haven't cut any fabric yet, just studying the pattern until I figure it out. Thanks!!
