excellent work...you've solved the mystery of the shoes...can't wait to see a picture maricris... 
manolos sizing:
he started sizing his shoes before spain was made to follow the european standard shoe sizing, so they run 1 size smaller in lenght and 1/2 size smaller in width than the european size.
european sizes do not have a "narrow" or "wide" option, and the shoes are wider than the standard American shoe.
i am a spain 38, europe 39 and the last time I bought shoes in America, I had to go for an 8W -almost 2 sizes bigger than as the shoe sizecharts say.

green manolo.. good size?would i be safe in a size 8 in these?
i usually go half size down in open toes
Do any of the stores in your area sell his shoes? I think it's best that you go and try them on first. I wouldn't size down even if they are open-toed shoes. It looks so tacky when a girl's toes are hanging off the edge of her sandals.
