Stupidly long high heels on a combat character has to be one of my most hated design tropes. Like at least for stuff like boob windows and exposed tights you can argue fan-service. But who actually wants a character with high heels?
You could argue foot fetishists but pretty sure they'd be just as fine being stepped on by a girl in combat boots.
I dunno if you ever played the original Resident Evil 3, but the female lead goes out to fight a city infested with zombies and other monstrosities in a boob tube and mini skirt.
One of the worst things about the outfit to me is that cleavage window. An enemy could easily grab the bottom of the cleavage window like a handle. It also leaves an opening that basically says āstab/shoot hereā like a bullseye to her vital organs.
Asides from that, the material of the dress doesn't look like it can quite protect her from being stabbed. At this point, she'd be just as safe if she fought naked.

I hope this isn't her combat outfit, because that looks... Highly impractial.
