Wow... just wow. If someone described them to me I would say they weren't my thing, but seeing them pictured is quite a different story. Simply gorgeous.

That's an interesting note. I don't know what others think, but I believe once you wear the shoe, one's weight would make the heel flat on the ground, IMHO.

I would disagree. I have a several shoes on which the heels are slightly slanted to accommodate for sole thickness as well as to level your foot parallel to the ground.
In a case where it hasn't been made by manufacturer (Grenson Rose collection) the tips of the shoes will be suspended in the air and point up in a very upsetting way.
