I wear a 9.5 in Chanel.

9/9.5 in US.

40.5 in CL.

What size Lanvins in leather should I go for?

Just make sure you can return them... If they don't work, send them back.

I'm usually a US 9.5 or EUR 40

MbyMJ 40.5

CL 41

The 41 in Lanvin fit me...I probably could do 40.5 too.

I think you'd need a 40.5 or a 40.

you wear the same sizes as me, go for 10 or 10.5 in US size, you will not go wrong!

I've been purchasing a lot of Lanvin flats the last couple of weeks with all the sales. I usually wear a size 6.5, but found that 7 works great! I've bought satin and regular leather. I recently purchased the patent from the Barneys sale but have not received them yet.

I just bought the leapord pony hair, but they are 6.5. Ihope they aren't too tight. Does anyone know if they stretch at all?

Depends on the style! I took TTS in one pair, and a whole size up from my normal size in an elasticized pump.

I am true to size (38) in Louboutin heels (all styles) so what size do you recommend for Lanvin flats (patent)?

Does anyone know what is the largest size Lavin makes for their flats? 41.5 or 42? I wear a 41 in Chanel, but when I tried on 41 in Lanvin (the bronze metallic flats), they were far too small.

I am going to Paris next weekend and hoping to find larger sizes at their store on rue du Fbg St. Honoré.

TIA!

I bought a patent pair with oversized bow in my normal size, 38, as NAP said they ran TTS, they are a little snug in the front and am wondering if:

a) they will stretch, so I should stick to this size OR
b) exchange for a 38.5

Any thoughts on how much Lanvin patent flats stretch? These are my pair:

Thanks in advance for any advice!

i needed a whole size up in patent compared to only a half size in leather. i don't think they will stretch much since patent is kind of hard. if you don't want to go all the way to a 39, order a 38.5. the elastic will hold them on your feet even if they are a tad big so going bigger isn't as bad as getting something a tad small on your feet and getting blisters.

I would also go at least a 1/2 size up in the patent.

Thanks for the advice ladies I tried them again and they're not snug per se, just fitted...but since they're brand new I wonder if they'll give in at all?
