Customer Reviews Gabriella Rocha Dancy

I bought these shoes in Berry, a vibrant hot pink. I wear an 11-12 in most shoes, and these do run small--the 12 Wide was just large enough to fit me. The toebox is somewhat cramped, and my big toes go numb after several hours, but I plan to have them stretched out by my shoe repairman. Also, my pair is synthetic leather--the colour selection drop down menu, aside from the suede colours, doesn't differentiate between real and fake leather. So I assume the plain black ones are leather, but most of the bright colours are probably not. The straps' narrow width make them difficult to fasten, and the tiny buckles don't help. Since the area under the buckle is elasticized, you can leave them buckled and use a shoehorn's assistance to put them on instead. The heels are high (in a size 12, they measure 4 even, rather than 3 3/4 as listed--not a big deal, just an observation). The shape of the heel bothers me--the first pair I ordered had one heel bent slightly rearward, so I exchanged them. The second pair had both bent, so that seems to be the intended design, for the heels to be bent backward (the shoes in the photos above are tilted very slightly forward, so this isn't apparent unless you see them in person). It looks odd, but most people wouldn't notice without further inspection. As a plus, the soles have a good amount of grip and traction, and the heels have rubber tips. I get so annoyed when shoes in the expensive price range have hard plastic heel tips--they offer no traction and thus can be dangerous on wet pavement. A cobbler can replace plastic heel tips with rubber ones for a little money, but it's nice to save that money with this pair. Overall, I love the shoes despite their flaws. They are very sexy and very unique, and look great when paired with a grey dress and matching pink jewelry!

Take heed of the reviews! I did & I have a comfortable, well fitting shoe. I wear an 8 1/2 M or a Wide, if available. I ordered a 9W. Fits perfectly. Yes, as one person wrote, they smell like bacon. I will let them air out. I will be ordering another pair (maybe they will smell like eggs).

Just perfect. I'm glad I took the other reviewers advice and ordered a half size bigger and the size wide. I generally wear an 8 regular width but an 8.5 wide width fit like a glove. I wore these the very next day with a dress and tights and it looked great. Got tons of compliments which didn't hurt. I'm not a fan of wearing tights with regular pumps so the look of these mary janes fit the bill perfectly. Super comfy - I wore them for about 9 hours at work and had no issue whatsoever. Highly recommend.

I love this shoe! It's extremely soft and looks very neat on my feet. However, the sizes in this shoe run a bit small, so I would advise you buy a half-size or a size up from your regular size!

Love this shoe. Probably the highest heel I own, yet surprisingly comfortable after putting in a non-slip insole. I originally ordered 8.5 W, based on other reviews on the size, but that did not quite work. My normal size is 8.5 regular, and this shoe works perfectly as a size 9. It does have a strong smell - the guys in my office feel it smells either like bacon, sausage, or real leather. Either way - a great purchase and thank you to Zappos for processing my exchange faster than light!

I just got these shoes in the mail, and I was nervous that they wouldn't fit, since other reviews of other shoes by Gabrielle Rocha said they run small. I ordered the size 5 anyway, and they fit pretty great. I probably would've gotten a 5.5 if it were available when I were ordering, but it seems okay enough. I've been on the search for a month for the perfect shoes to wear with my wedding dress in June, and I couldn't be more pleased with these. My only complaints are that the stitching on the inside is bugging my foot (but only one of them), and that the buckles seem cheaply made and aren't sturdy. I also wish the heel weren't black, but the same gorgeous red color. Oh well. They seem comfortable enough (I've been walking around in them for a few hours) and they don't make me feel horrible about spending the money on them.

I got the black suede Dancy in store. Very cute, fancy and comfortable shoes. I got my exact shoe size, 6.5, but they run a bit small. Next ones I get I will get them in 7.

These shoes are awesome! I am a size 10 and I bought the 10 in wide though. They fit nicely. I don't think they smell and actually my feet don't hurt. Naturally if you wear them for 8 hours of course but they are perfect.

From past experience, I'm always a bit skeptical to take sizing advice from reviews, but general consensus for this shoe was order up. I'm so glad I did. I normally wear an 8.5, but 9W is the perfect fit. The nude color is a slightly more camel-y than I was expecting. My biggest issue is that the buckles were obviously designed for style rather than functionality. They are oval-shaped and more narrow than the strap is at the ends, which makes buckling them difficult. I'm hoping that will improve with time as the straps get a bit worn. I loved the stacked heels and the overall aesthetic of the shoe! The nude color is a perfect office shoe, but the more daring colors would be great for an 'after-work' shoe. Now I want to buy them in teal!

Incredibly comfortable and cute shoe, but the new ones run a half size small. I own an older pair of Dancy in red leather that were true to size and fit beautifully at a 10, but the 10 red patent leather ones I just received are much too small. I'm disappointed that the sizing changed and most colors aren't available in the next half size up for me, since these are such great fit and adorable.

These shoes are super cute, very shiny! I don't wear heels a lot and I can wear these the whole night without much discomfort. By the end of the night though I am feeling like I want to take them off. Many compliments.

I love these shoes. So darn cute! My husband loves it too, especially with skinny jeans. Love this site!

These shoes are very comfortable (as far as heels go) and the heel height is just right. I own several different pairs of Gabriella Rocha shoes and have learned that they run small. I always order a half size larger than my normal size and they fit great. I have wider feet, so the rounded toe box on these really helps with the comfort. I ordered the black patent, and they were a little cheaper looking than I hoped but I still plan on keeping them.

I love the deep purple color and they fit great. Cute style, but still comfortable. I've purchased this brand before, so I knew that I would need a half-size larger than I normally order.

Love these shoes. Very cute and comfortable. Fit perfectly (I have wider feet). Feet got sore after wearing them for 6+ hours but overall very comfortable. Great for any occasion. Highly recommend these! Got tons of compliments. :) Happy shopping!

I took the advice and sized up for these shoes. I regularly wear a 7.5 and I got them in an 8 in black leather. I wore the shoes the very next day to work and got lots of compliments. Goes very well with skirts and dresses and it works with suits too.

Love the look of this shoe. The skinny straps are perfect to keep the shoes on even with such high heels. Comfortable, but not a shoe to stand in for long hours.

This shoes run small. I wear 7 but thanks to the kind reviews, got 7.5 mb. I am by how comfortable these shoes feel. Will get more colors.

This shoe is at least 1 size too small Can't rate it because I could not get them on.

Shoe fits great, true to size. I thought it would be more of a textured surface and it is smooth and has a mottled color which is nice.

I love these shoes. These are the highest heels I've ever worn but I had no trouble at all getting used to them. They look so gorgeous and sexy on. Very comfortable. A little bit narrow across the toes, but nothing that won't stretch with wear. I would get a gel pad under the balls of your feet if you intend to walk a lot in them. The padding is okay but not thick enough to do the job. Some people have described the straps as flimsy but I think they are just soft. I don't have to unbuckle them to put them on or take them off and they keep my feet from slipping out of the heels, which is typically a problem for me with higher heeled pumps. I may be forced to purchase them in another color!

These aren't shoes you'd walk long distances in, but around the office, they're fantastic. I love the style and they're fairly comfortable.

These are very elegant shoes. I loved the wooden heel on the cream colored pair that I ordered. The color of the leather seemed to be a bit darker than they appear in the picture. I have a narrow foot and usually wear size 8 or 8 1/2. I ordered the size 8 in this shoe and had to return them because they were way too small.

Very comfortable shoe. I am always looking for something that has some type of ankle strap, I have narrow heels and hate it when my heels always "pop" out of pumps. But these are very comfortable and the color is perfect. Thanks!

This shoe looked FABULOUS for my daughter's homecoming! The toes of Gabriella Rocha shoes seem very tight -- I recommend going with the wide shoe if it's available, or going a half size larger. The heel height of this shoe was very nice - her legs looked a mile long!
