Ellie Shoes Women's 254 Lucille Dress Pump

Comment

I had purchaced these for Cosplay and regular wear. I typically wear a 7.5 or 8, so I ordered an 8. The biggest plus is the price point. The shoe length was exactly right for an 8. The flared heels are very stable. Shoes have a nice round toe box. If your feet could be considered in any way narrow... these may will not work for you. There is at least a half inch between the top of my foot and the top of the toe box (I can easily insert my finger in the gap). I am going to try a pad under the ball of my foot but may still have to return these and look elsewhere. The toe box itself is not wider than my foot. It is just very deep. The heel is an appropriate width and feels comfortable. Other than the toe box being huge on me, they appear to be well made for the price point. I also noticed that they have a bit of flexability which could make them ideal for dancing.

Fast shipping and free returns. I recommend everyone purchase the two sizes they normally fit into (or three if they think they only ever fit one size) and just try them on in the living room and return the one (or two) that dont fit. Nearly all of my shoes are 7.5B/M or 8B/M (usually 7.5B/M in dress shoes) so I ordered the 7B/M and 8B/M. The 7B was a tiny bit tight (which may have loosened up with wear) and my toes bumped against the toe of the shoe when I walked or danced. The 8B was a little longer and wider (just a tad too wide actually) which allowed me to fit in a gel ball-of-foot insert which made the toe box fit perfectly and added some padding. (I should probably mention that I always wear stockings with my dress shoes so take that into account when I speak of their comfort; I have no idea how theyd fit in bare feet.) Overall the shoe makes a great street sole dancing shoe. They are very fast (for non-suede soles). The spool heel is 2.5" which isnt too high and is positioned directly under the heel which helps with balance when dancing. The ankle strap is comfortable and can be tightened so the shoe barely moves when dancing. I had no trouble with the t-strap, but it occurred to me that if I didnt have such slim ankles (I buckle the strap to its tightest or second to tightest hole) it might be too long. And from a historical point of view these really do make the perfect finishing touch to a 1920s to 1940s outfit.

Update: Having now brazenly tried to wear them for longer than a two hour period, OW OW OW OW OW OW. For this price, this is a super great little shoe that isnt quite like any other little shoe that I have, so I can totally justify it. Runs about a half size large and also a little wide, which is great for my feet. Super comfy. Feels like I could wear these all night [spoiler: this will turn out to be a delusion].

Though cute, I paid for NEW shoes, but these arrived last night obviously worn and used. Bottoms of shoes (soles and heels) are DIRTY). Not happy.

These shoes are so damn cute! & Comfy! I typically wear anywhere from a size 8, 8 ½ or 9, depending on the brand of shoe. But after reading some of the reviews I decided to order the size 9 & Im so glad I did. They fit perfectly! Bought them to go with a dress for a wedding & I cant wait to show them off lol
