Model's Shoes

Could you please have the model's wear more flat shoes? Some of us cannot wear heels and I would like to see what the pants/outfits look like with flats. There were several slacks on Susan Graver this morning that I would have liked to purchase, but I was hoping to see a model wearing flats to be sure. Thank you.

The hosts usually give the measurements of the inseam and pants length. I find this information can be helpful in determining shoe height.

That's always what I use. I don't wear heels at all and haven't worried about the model's shoes. I'm only 5' tall and even tiny Amy is 2" taller than I am, so none of the models will help me determine length no matter what they wear on their feet. Measurements are the way to go.

Seems to me that there's already a nice variety of footwear worn. I don't need to see an outfit in flats to visualize what it will look like.

@TyZach

I've been thinking the exact same thing ... no one in my "peer group" wears high heels with pants. Actually - none of them wear high heels at all. (You just don't see many spike heels on the NYC streets ... not the ideal place to wear high heels. Great for standing around in front of a TV camera ... not so great walkng along Madson Avenue.)

My view is that they show the models with high heels to make their legs and pants look longer and slimmer. And .... with lower heels some of the pants would be dragging on the floor.

Personally - 29" is the perfect inseam for me for straight leg pants, and I can do 30 for wide leg pants. I'm OCD about where the pants "break" on my foot/shoe. I won't sew knits myself, and it gets expensive to have pants shortened.

I do pay attention to the measurements, the thing I am unsure of is pants seem to be getting narrower at the bottom. I know they look good with heels, but do the slimmer pants look good with flats??? I know jeans and casual pants look ok, but what about the dressier pants? Now that I hit my 60's, I have gone through bell bottoms, wide legs, straight pants, etc. Narrow is new to me, but I like them. So I thought a visual may help. Thanks for the comments.

When I read the subject, "Models' Shoes", I thought it was about poor fitting shoes on the models. I've noticed that their shoes don't always look like the correct size. There are often gaps at the heel and sometimes the toes look squashed into the shoes. The models must suffer, but they keep on smiling! QVC, please give proper fitting foot wear to the models!

Funny .... their clothes are too small, and their shoes are too big!
