Okay, i normally wear a 7.5 and I ordered 7's. They were a bit loose, but I didn't want to go thru the hassle of sending them back either. They stretched out a bit and now they are almost unwearable due to they rub blisters... yes I have gotten blisters from my uggs... so the next pair I purchased I purchased a 6. a bit snug at first, but after a bit if stretching (like 4 wearings) they are perfect!!! I hope this helps
Any answers for Lanvin? - true to size, runs big or small?? I'm after a pair of boots and i don't know what size i should get. I'm normally a 38.
YSL Rive Gauche heels- true to size Alexander McQueen flats- went size and a half down (run large). Alexander McQueen heels- went 1 size down Celine- depends. some flats run small, some true to size. Pedro Garcia- runs a bit large Marc Jacobs- very narrow for my wide feet

Just went through the thread: a little summary Vera Wang- True To Size (for a wide foot) Gina - up one size D&G- down 1/2-1 size Rene Caovilla- up 1/2 size (run small) Chanel- runs small Gucci- true to size Dior- runs small by 1/2 size Prada- true to size (if open toe/ open back); otherwise up 1/2 to 1 size
- others say true to size
- male: run larger, go 1/2-1 size smaller Versace- runs large (only one experience) Costume National- true to size, some cases 1/2 size bigger YSL Rive Gauche- i think they're true to size but post 1 says very narrow Gucci- runs "long" and narrow depending on style
closed toe- run smaller
sandals- normal Chloe: run 1/2 big Tods- all over the place Chanel- normal Sergio Rossi: run big (up 1/2 size) Emporio Armani: normal Louis Vuitton: normal, sneakers run big LV pumps- go half a size up Vivienne Westwood- runs 1/2 size large J.Choo- run narrow
- half a size small
- super comfy Michael Kors- slightly narrow Blahnnik- run narrow

Just a few things to add....
I have found that Versace, Valentino, Burberry, Casadei and Zac Posen shoes run true-to-size generally. Jimmy Choos and Manolo Blahniks run 1/2 size small. Christian Louboutins sizing depends on the style (see my guide to christian louboutin shoe sizing on ebay!). Choos, Blahniks & Louboutins do run narrow. Salvatore Ferragamo and Stuart Weitzman shoes run narrow, but I still get my normal size...if your foot is wide at any point, I would size up 1/2 size for comfort.
I'm buying a pair of Vivienne Westwood's pirate boots and I was wondering if anybody could explain the sizing to me? It can be found at http://www.hervia.com/Shoes-Pirate-B...duct_info.html. Are they in American or European sizing? I'm questioning this because a size 3 is awfully small for American and I'm quite confused. So basically, if I wear an American 7.5/8, how would this translate into other sizing? If it is sized differently, that is.

You probably want a 5.

cinechrome, i find mcqueen shoes to be the most uncomfortable shoes ever, but they were true to size for me, and im a 37.5 too... but i dont know about sandals, as i only got to wear closed-toe pumps!
anyway, does anybody know how do the lanvin flats run? true to size? small?
if only i could try a pair on i'll be sure on what size to buy...
Marc Jacobs ... my regular size is 8 (European 38), and I own both 7.5s and 8.5s. Every pair I have has ended up stretching. I would buy these on the small side.
