| Know Your "True" Size If you're not really sure about your "true" shoe size, it's a good idea to find out before you order. The next time you're out shopping, stop by a specialty shoe store and have your feet measured by a professional. Get measured in the afternoon or evening since feet tend to swell throughout the day. Order The Size Once you know your size, stick to it. Our bridal shoes run true-to-size and ordering a size "up" for comfort is not a good idea since slipping and chafing in a too-large shoe can be just as painful as shoes that are too tight. In-between Sizes If you find you tend to be in-between sizes and you are going to order a shoe with a pointed toe, choose the bigger size. Then use a shoe pad under the ball of your foot for a snug, comfortable fit. HOW HEEL HEIGHT MEASUREMENTS WORK The heel heights for our selection of women’s formal shoes, bridal shoes, prom shoes and wedding party shoes are all measured to the inside of the heel and not the back of the heel. This heel measurement conforms to how shoe manufacturers measure heel heights. Be aware that this standard of measuring heel heights will add about a half an inch (in actual height) to the listed heel height for all shoe products. THE LARGER THE SHOE SIZE, THE HIGHER THE HEEL HEIGHT Heel heights are actually determined by the size of the shoe. The larger the bridal shoes, prom shoes or women\'s formal shoes, the larger the actual heel height - essentially the heel height gets proportionately higher. For instance, if one were to order a woman’s formal shoe in size 6 (with a heel height of 1 inch), the heel height on a size 11 shoe (in the same style) would be approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch higher to accommodate for the size difference. WIDTH AND FIT Many of our women’s formal shoes, designer bridal shoes, wedding party shoes and dyeable prom shoes that are listed on this site are available in multiple widths.
