I'm knitting this shape to become a super simple dress for my baby daughter. I figure two of those rectangles (with garter stitch at the neck/arm holes) stitched together, maybe with some cross-stitching added later could be made pretty cute.

Anyway, I want to add some increases to make it wider toward the bottom to accommodate for her fluffy bum. Where should they go? I was thinking they could start at the bottom of the garter stitching for the arm holes, but should I add them in the middle? On the sides? What's going to look okay?

('m a new knitter, and have mastered knitting/purling/increasing/decreasing and know what to do to get what I want, but having only made up my own crochet patterns I'm not quite sure with knitting.)
