These shoes are adorable and as comfortable as dress heels get. I bought them for a ball and they were perfect for walking and dancing for the first five hours. After that point, the soles of my feet started to blister. Not sure I can pin the blame for that on the shoes though. They\'re flattering, sturdy, stable, and remarkably elegant for the height of the platform and width of the heel.

I ordered this shoe in ivory, to go with my wedding dress. I normally don't wear over a 3 inch heel, but these shoes are so comfortable! With the extra height from the shoe, I successfully avoided a hem, saving myself $250! I've been wearing them around the house to break them in, and my fiance loves seeing me in them, so sexy! My only complaint is that the strap doesn't tighten enough, but that is easily fixable; I'll just take them to a shoe shop and have them poke a few more holes in the ankle strap.

First of all, I love Zappos.com! Their shipping and service policy makes ordering online risk-free. The Ivory Baldwin shoe deserves its rave reviews. The picture looks more matte than the actual shoe, which is a rich bridal ivory satin. They are very high, but it doesn't feel high due to the platform. I would order in every color if I could. Also, the softness of the fabric eliminates the "cutting" feeling you sometimes get around the toe.

I have been looking for a while for shoes for my upcoming wedding. When I came across this shoe, I totally loved the look and ordered them (I had them shipped to a friend in US and they shipped them to me in Europe; the crazy thing that women do for their shoes). Anyways, the shoes are perfect! Beautiful ivory color matching my ivory dress. I wear 6.5 or 7 size, I ordered 6.5 and they fit well. The platform and satin fabric makes them very comfy. Can't wait to wear them for my wedding!

Surprisingly comfortable! I think the platform and the fact that the front portion is made of soft satin fabric with no hard lining at all makes these shoes easy to wear for hours and hours. They are also pretty well-made for the price. I expected them to be more cheap-looking.

This is a very cute shoe, but it just didn't work as my bridal shoes. The platform and heel was too high and I knew it wouldn't be comfortable for long. Cute, though!

I was searching for the perfect wedding shoe and needed some height so hopefully I wouldn\'t have to get my dress alterd. I saw this shoe in ivory and thought It was perfect! So I did some research on the reviews and to my surprise they were all positive. I saw how they offered free shipping and free returns so I wasn\'t sure on my size I ordered a 7 and 7.5 ivory and another 2 sizes in the black since I thought they were so cute! I received them super quick! All I can tell you the reviews do not lie! I wore the black ones to work for 2 days straight and not once got tired. I will be a happy bride!!! Returns and having zappos credit you back super easy and quick. All their employees are super friendly and ready to help with any situation! \r\n

I bought these shoes for an awards dinner and they were surprisingly comfortable for such high heels! The platform provided good support and the soft fabric was comfortable on the top of my foot. Not to mention these are hottie shoes! They looked great. I bought them in the taupe color so that I could wear with a teal colored dress. Looked really nice.

I loved these shoes. They look absolutely amazing on. I used them as my bridesmaid shoes for my sister's wedding. I would recommend wearing them for a few nights before a long night out. The high heel can hurt the foot if you aren't used to wearing heels. I had a small blister on one toe, but all in all they were pretty comfortable. My dress was champagne and the ivory matched perfectly.

A lovely, retro/kinky shoe that is perfect for spicing up "that old little black dress". I am a 7m and it fit true to size. It is high, but with the 1" platform, it is a bit more comfortable on older knees. Highly recommended.

I love these shoes! Like many, I ordered additional pairs of Chinese Laundry Baldwin shoes in other colors after my 1st pair. The shoes are true to fit, comfortable and elegant. It does not have the bulky look of platforms at all! I had originally ordered 2 sizes bigger as they were out of inventory. Amazingly, it still fits well. Credit goes to the design of the flexible ankle strap. Anyway, I have since ordered to my true size (5.5M) and it is great! Zappos also deserves A+ Star ratings for fast response/follow up time and speedy delivery!

Bought these shoes for my upcoming wedding. I had purchased two other pairs from Zappos (of course) but returned them for this pair. The best thing about this shoe is the platform in the front of the shoe. It is subtly hidden so it still looks great but best of all, it provides a lot more comfort because your foot is not positioned so steep. In these shoes you can dance all night!

I love them! When I ordered the shoe I liked the picture because it was a hidden platform, and that's usually more comfortable for long standing times. Not to mention it looked really nice in the picture. But when I got them, they were better than in the picture, much nicer, and if you're looking for comfort, these are it! You can and will want to stand in them all night long. I really couldn't believe how comfortable they are. I highly recommend it. Very comfortable and beautiful at that! And Zappos has amazing customer service.

Just what I was looking for -
After staring at these shoes for a few weeks I decided to get purchase them for my wedding next month. From the pictures they weren't exactly what I wanted, but time is running out and I needed to start somewhere. So they came, they fit true to size, color and style match my dress perfectly, and to top it off they are more than comfortable. I have tender sensitive feet and usually require new shoes to be worn around the house with socks to break them in. Not these ones, I threw them on for a few hours and not a single sore spot. The hidden platform is a nice touch to add a little height.

Perfect for your wedding day! I wore these shoes on my wedding day from afternoon until midnight. They are oh so comfortable! I danced on them for hours. The platform is great, heel height is perfect! I got them in ivory, and it is a perfect match if your dress is ivory. I looked for wedding shoes literally for months, and I was ready to spend a lot if I needed. Some weren't high enough, some weren't comfortable enough, some weren't ivory enough, some weren't cute enough. But these are the best! I will not even mention the price:)

These shoes are really pretty and look very expensive. I ordered them to wear to a wedding that I am marching in, a recommendation from my sis who herself wore them for her own wedding (while in her 10k Priscilla of Boston dress).\r\nI got them in Ivory, which is more like a delicate cream satin color.

This shoe is amazing! I originally ordered these shoes in Ivory for my upcoming wedding in June and after receiving them I had to get another pair in Black that I could wear out on the town. They are so comfortable, and being 5'2" I can use all the height I can get. I also have really sensitive feet that hurt right away when wearing heels, but the satin front doesn't dig into your foot at all, and the "hidden" platform makes the heel not feel as tall as it really is. As far as it being true to size I normally wear an 8 1/2 in heels and had to get a size 8 in these, so you might want to order 1/2 size smaller than normal. If you are looking for a comfortable, sexy pair of heels, these are the shoes for you!

Love the shoes, love the Zappos!
I ordered these lovelies for my upcoming wedding (yes indeed it is a popular wedding shoe). I loved the no shipping no tax, the price you see is the price you get charged, so straight off the bat, points for Zappos. The shoe came very quickly in the mail and I was delighted to try them on, only to find they were half a size too small... I checked the site and saw there was only one shoe left in stock that was half a size up in the color I wanted. Soo in a bit of a panic I called them to see if they could reserve/hold the shoe for me. To my great delight Zappos said "No problem we'll just send that shoe out right away to you" and this was even before I sent back the existing one. They didn't even charge my card again, now that's GREAT customer service!! I am most definitely a loyal fan now and not so afraid to online shoe shop. :-)

 |  | I just wanted to thank you for being so wonderful. Last week I ordered a pair of shoes but when I got them home the color didn't match so I needed to return them. What I didn't realize was that when I shipped them back to you, my cell phone charger was also in the box. The last couple of days I have been going crazy looking for it. But to my surprise it showed up today. My UPS driver just dropped off a tiny Zappos box. As I opened the box knowing that I hadn't ordered anything, I was amazed and grateful to find the charger in there. This little gesture just proves how much your company goes above and beyond for their customers and I for one truly, truly appreciate it. When you say "We are always here for you" you really mean it! I love your company, site, and all you stand for and do for your customers. I can't thank you enough for making my day! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
