Grab a safety pin and string in this case a shoelace. TIP: the bigger the safety pin the easier to close it isn't going to stay on your dress so it's okay to use a ridiculously large one like this

Slide the string through the safety pin and the put the safety pin on your zipper

Pull the string up and that's it! It is literally that easy!!!

    After it's zipped, How do you get the safety pin out of the zipper?

      Excellent question. Personally, I'd just use a long string (or shoe lace) and pull it out once zipped. Just leave out the pin.
