    Default shoes

    Hi gals! I'm new. Not a dancer but I am doing a shoot next week and I am wearing 6 inch platforms. The problem is.... when I have on stockings they fit great but when I am not wearing stockings I can't get my freaking foot in the shoe!! Therefore I didn't buy them. Was wondering how much they stretch? If I got them and wore them a bit with the stockings would my bodyheat stretch the upper plastic part?

    Also -- if anyone is in NYC and can tell me places that sell clear platforms it would be great!

    A hair dryer will help soften the plastic so that it can mold to your foot. The shoes do stretch on their own, but it takes some time.

    Yes. Also if you where them around the house they'll stretch out. Thats what I do when I get shoes that are a little narrow. I don't live in NYC but, you can try buying from eBay. If you use buy it now or find an auction thats ending soon you should be able to get your shoes by Friday. www.snaz75.com has pretty quick shipping, I usually get my orders right away and the prices are good. Check the clearance section for really good deals.
    Good luck on your audition.

    I have never seen a Priscilla's in nyc- I'm not sure if one is there. I'm sure there IS a place that sells the shoes for a good price- but I haven't found one yet. The sex stores sell them, but usually for more than the prices online.

    Rayray- there is a shop on West 8th past broadway that sells those shoes. And I remember Pink Pussycat might have some. Even if they don't- there are a bunch of shops on those streets that would also sell it.

    you can buy shoe stretchers in regular shoe stores, or on ebay. they're a wooden, vaugely foot shaped contraption. you slip it into the shoe and turn a crank to spread the stretcher, which stretches the shoe. it works great on leather, i imagine it would work with vinyl, too. be careful not to stretch it so much that it's loose, though!
