Is this the problem you’re dealing with? It can be really annoying and embarrassing.
Who wants to be fiddling with their shoulder straps all day?
To solve the problem, fold the straps down to the inside of your dress at the back of the dress.
Then, fold the strap back up leaving the length you want to shorten the straps by on the inside of your dress.
Secure the excess strap length to the back of your dress with a safety pin, keeping the pin from showing on the outside.
Repeat with the other strap.

Great idea in a pinch....but you'd get a "pinch" if that pin opens up! Ouch!
That pin would be very uncomfortable and could open and scratch. I always sew the straps of my bras to the correct length and then there is no problem. It only takes a couple of minutes to do.
