That's comforting....the Stillwaters that I have are tucked up aboot midway between my navel and the bottom of my rib cage...now bear in mind that I'm aboot 5'10" and that keeps the hem just at the tops of my kneecaps and it's oddly comfortable in that position...it certainly never feels like it's slipping down; it just feels like it's in the right spot.
Now if you had asked me "how high is too high" about thirty years ago, I would have had an entirely different answer.
