Did you try something like pulling her bare feet a bit forward out of the shadows (I like the shadowy background), resting them sort of on their side (left foot partially behind the right) with a slight tension-free arch and toes gently pointed?
We tried a lot of different foot positions. I made about 100 shots in about an hour. I'll try some more barefoot stuff when I work with her again. Feet are always tough to pose. My friend Nigel Holmes says he often wishes models didn't have feet. Maybe you'll like this old barefoot shot from 1994. (Nudity warning!):

"Funny" would not have been my reaction to her request to get naked!
Nor mine, but I was considering using some of the shots in magazine articles, and photo magazines in the USA are afraid to publish nudes. So I ignored her pleas and made her keep her clothes on for the whole shoot!
