Charity Preview fashion: Comfort above all

Like many, Gail Fisher of Southfield wore a floor length black dress to the Charity Preview, but unlike many, she wore white tennis shoes on her feet. With inserts.

"I can't do heels!" Fisher explained. "But listen to this. You see all those girls walking around in little six inch heels? In about three more hours, they're gonna be looking at me and going, 'God, you're smart.'"

Fisher says she wears her tennis shoes to the Charity Preview every year. She said she noticed attendance was down this year, and thinks the Charity Preview folks should have done something more to goose ticket sales.

They sort of did, by tying in a Jonas Brothers concert Sunday at Joe Louis Arena, but Fisher said she wasn't interested. Her response when asked if she would be attending the show? "Ah, no."
