Re: glamorous pair of shoes
Ah. Hips. We have two. To say someone has "a big hip" is wrong. Unless there is some serious deformitiy going on.
You can be glamorous without being vuluptuous, or even, I think, sexy. People talk about photo-journalism as a "glamorous" career, picturing them jetting all over the world to take exotic photographs. (They have little sense of how hard that work is.)
You can have a glamorous gown full of sparkles and interesting cuts on a very thin, rail-like figure.
I think you'll be best served using "voluptuous" for the meaning you seem to want.

I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
