Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it obligatory for a woman to cover her feet in prayer?

Answer:
Yes. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, when one of his wives asked him about praying in a long dress:
He replied, "If the long dress is ample and covers the surface of her feet."قال إذا كان الدرع سابغا يغطي ظهور قدميها
Bulugh al-Maram 2:73
