History of fashion question about chopines?

by jaderust

Is there any images out there of how women wore these out in public? Basically I'm wondering if women wearing chopines would have dresses long enough to cover the entire chopine or if they would stop at the regular length to just cover the shoe.

And while I have your attention? Were those things even comfortable enough to stand or walk in for any period of time?

Most paintings of women at the time do not show shoes, so at least for formal occasions their dresses would cover their shoes (as depicted here and here). However some sketches shows otherwise (as depicted here and here.)
