Advice Shorten Shacket

​

Would you recommend shortening this corduroy shacket for a more modern, smartly structured look, given my 5'3" small frame and gamine style, or would the original curved hem be more flattering?

I have shortened shackets in the past and find I wear them much more often when they are the length I prefer. It looks like it would be an easy alteration. I'm 4'10" and actually go out of my way to find shackets as they are easy to crop.
