These shoes are absolutely gorgeous! I normally have difficulty with any heels because of my bunions, but these shoes fit perfectly, and cause no pain whatsoever. I'm getting married next weekend and these shoes are exactly what I needed!

Beautiful evening shoe.Fairly true to size.I wear a 9 med but have to return them because the heel is too wide and slips right off my foot.

I decided to size down after reading the reviews. I am normally a 7 1/2, sometimes a 7 or an 8. I ordered the black luster satin in a 7M. It was definitely too small, I should've probably gone with an 8 but it was out of stock. Because I had another dress I needed shoes for and trying to hedge my bets, I also ordered the Platino reflective Suedette in 7 1/2 M. This was also too small. Very cute shoes, but keep in mind you just might be the odd one out like myself who actually needed to size up half a size. I had to return both.

These shoes are pretty to look at, but I couldn't even make it 10 feet in them. I have an average foot, but as soon as I stood up, my foot slid to the front of the shoe, there was a big gap at the heel, and my toes were bearing the full weight of my body, scrunched against the front. Ouch! The shoes were very stiff. Perhaps the Medium is really Wide, I don't know. But for me, these are unwearable.

I don't wear heels often and bought these for a wedding. While my feet were sore by the end of the night, the shoes were overall pretty comfortable for the amount of standing involved. I tend to sort of slide through the front of peep toes, but these held well.

Absolutely beautiful shoes with a satin finish. Perfect with my short dress for my daughter's wedding. I am 67 years old and decided to go with another shoe that gave me a little more support.

Super cute!! Kind of uncomfy and my toes push out the front a bit, but that’s to be expected with any peep toe style, in my opinion. I plan on wearing these for 1/2 an hour - a full hour for my wedding, but then probably changing for evening events for comfort. The material is so nice, though, and I’m super excited to get to wear them!

This shoes are a perfect color if you can't decide between gold and silver. They are also the perfect height for those who are not able to wear high heels.
I'd also recommend:
Many, if they are comfortable. Never know until you purchase.

Beautiful and elegant shoe. The size 10 was a tiny bit too snug but the 11 is slightly too loose!
It seems they don't make a 10 1/2.
Hopefully a pad underneath the toes will help tighten the shoe.

Beautiful shoes with ample room in the toe and perfect heel height for some who worries about twisting an ankle. Champagne color is true to website photo. As other reviewers found, the heel slips, but the shoes are so otherwise perfect I want to keep them and may try a heel pad for extra grip.

Very sophisticated and elegant. Soft silver to oyster shade of color. Was absolutely perfect color for my needs. Quality that will not disappoint.

Pretty comfortable for a heel! Really pretty! I’ve always wanted a pair of peep toe heels. These will pair well with my formal dress for attending a wedding.

This is a very pretty shoe so I was so disappointed that the width was too narrow. I have always worn a medium width shoe but it seems a lot of the dressy shoes run small.

These shoes really are beautiful. That said, my foot lifted out of the shoe with every step. They're the right size, but there's just not enough there to be able to apply any of the tricks (such as putting moleskin on the heel) that might normally work. They're like gorgeous fancy flip-flops, as far as my feet are concerned. I'm sad to have to return them.

Beautiful shoe and true to width but unfortunately the strap hit right across my bunion so I could not wear it for an all day wedding event ?

These were very cute but also incredibly tight in the toe area and very uncomfortable. Returned them as I couldn't keep them on for more than a few seconds.

Nina is one of my go-to brands for evening and dress heels. The Contesa is a truly lovely, elegant shoe; perfect heel height for what I needed. Unfortunately it was too small. Returned.

These would have been perfect shoes, except for the fact that they are already dry-rotting on the bottom. I wore them once and the bottom of the shoes are already beginning to fall apart. I wore them for about two hours and did not do that much walking. They are not going to last long. I wish I had known I was purchasing disposable shoes.

Since I don't have the feet of a Komodo Dragon these "pretty on paper" shoes didn't fit me, unless credit is given for them being the correct length for my foot, so kudos to the company for knowing how long a size 9 is. Everything else about the shoe was just wrong! My first impression upon taking the shoe out of the box was that the box was more substantial than the shoe. The feel of cheap fabric glued onto thin cardboard came to mind. This suspicion was further enforced after putting them on, as walking in a straight line was impeded by pain from a sharpened peep toe opening compounded by my heels flipping completely
out of the shoe with every step, and a wobbling gait which could have gotten me arrested if I ever got pulled over in a traffic stop while wearing them! They are, without a doubt, the most cheaply made, uncomfortable shoes I have ever stepped into. My guess? Less than $10 went into the materials and manufacture of this shoe. My advice? Only order them if you are planning to write a sequel to Steve Martin's essay collection, "Cruel Shoes."

I ordered these shoes for a wedding . I had the same pair at home, but they no longer fit, which was both surprising and disappointing. I was so happy to find them in another size, which worked perfectly!

Beautiful looking. But I ordered too large post surgery and it would not work with my foot.

I would’ve needed a half size bigger, but that’s just because of me, not the shoe. Beautiful shoe, however, I chose to go with a different one for a wedding.
