@Spurt - I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry at this picture you shared! I wish it were an extreme example of how clothing is presented, but it is becoming more and more common on many websites. I mean, c'mon—you can't get a good perspective on a single item she's wearing in that shot!

If I understand what you're talking about, I see Lori Goldstein standing like that much of the time.  I've always heard that described as being pigeon-toed.

@Kachina624  I was going to say the exact same thing! Yes, Lori Goldstein is pigeon-toed.

Interesting. I've noticed that Susan Graver and Liz Lange both have the same slouchy posture.. Maybe it is done so that they appear to be humble and not diva-like LOL

@BirkiLady  I agree with much of what you say.  Louis D, Bob Mackie and Dennis Basso, --I know a lot of people here don't like DB--always have the models who look very professional.  Anne and Kate both look and act like runway models and I've never seen them in the pidgeon -toe stance.  The new larger model on DB's show the other night stood in a scissor's stance which was very unattractive.  But as another poster said, the pidgeon-toe supposedly makes you thighs look thinner.  I will try walking like that from now on>

@bootsanne  The pigeon-toe stance makes the rear-end jut out. It ruins the posture! If the clothing is fitted properly, why worry about thigh issues? That tells me LOGO line isn't made well . . . which is apparent from watching a couple of hours on TV when it first launched. LG must know it is not well tailored if she has to stand to hide her thighs. I honestly thought she was naturally pigeon-toed and wasn't aware of how distracting it is to viewers! I've also thought her shoes were ill-fitting.  Dang, she does use that grey matter of hers. Silly me . . . she certainly had me fooled.

@Kachina624  Now you are going to make me stare at Grayson when he walks by, lol.
