Need help altering the back of this dress!

Hello! I have this dress that my friend wants me to take in. I already hemmed the bottom but I’m a bit stumped on what to do with the back. The fabric drapes too low so that you can literally see her butt crack lol, I pinned it to take it in on the sides but it does get rid of some of the vibe of flowy open back. There are two side seams to the dress and one of them has the side zipper so taking it in on the sides may be a little tricky. I thought about removing the back piece all together and raising it he fabric so I still keep the hang but it just sits up higher on her back but then again we get into the problem of the zipper, which I guess could remove fully? Does anyone have any suggestions? Would be greatly appreciated!!
