THANK YOU!!!!!! Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Yes the black Franklins totally ROCK! Mod pics have been long overdue from me....so ashamed...I think I owe like a gazillion photos to various ladies on the Wardrobe/IM thread! :shame: I will try my best. It's just that I have so little time, with my 100-hour workweek. (I'm literally chained to my laptop 7 days a week...I'm working right now on a beautiful Saturday afternoon while my husband and kids are out having fun) Gotta get the necessary lighting, which usually means mid-day while I'm hard at work, and the solid 5 minutes (at least) to get dressed properly for the shot. Oy vay! I'll try!

so good to see some fellow Kiwis here! I myself love KW too! Wasn't Perfect Day just... Perfect Birkingal?!
I'm searching for my IM boots after years and years of abusing my legs with 4"+ heels... bit late to the game... but better late than never!
addicted ali, a big wave to a fellow Kiwi! KW has a different collection for the Northern Hemisphere but I prefer the selection she does for NZ and Australia. My only consolation is I can order from her website now. Yay!
Yes, the IM boots are great. I have a similar version custom made for my small feet because IM sizes start from 36. The heels are comfortable for walking which is saying a lot seeing that I don't wear heels at all.
LOL, I myself prefer the Northern Hemisphere... always 
... guess it just goes to show that we all want what we can't have! How long have you been living in the UK now? Yes the online shop does make things easier doesn't it? It's still a shame however though that not everything is on there, and stock is always different, so even if something is sold out it always pays to check with the stores... I don't know how I'm gona cope if I ever move overseas! Do you come back often?
gosh better stop this otherwise it'll turn into a KW thread!
yes hopefully I can find some IM boots... wow, you must have really small feet! A friend of mine is a size 35 and she always has trouble finding shoes!
Custom made is good though, at least that way you get it exactly how you want it! you must post pics for us all to see!

I used to live a few minutes' walk from a KW store and I was spoiled rotten. I can't complain. Shopping is FAB here! I've been here for 3.5 years but have only been back once. I've got size 34 feet. Yup. In fact, my friend's 8 year old can wear my shoes. I call my IM boots the IM wannabe. I've taken quite a few photos on my blog so take a peek there. I don't want to offend anyone on this thread as it's not IM.
ladies - quick question for those that purchased IM dickers THIS season: are they running true to size? reason i ask is last season, i bought IM dickers in taupe and they were true to size. this was after that whole debacle of the dickers running small to size in previous seasons. anyway, THIS season (fall 2011), i have heard that they are running LARGE to size.
so basically, here is my dilemma. last season, i bought the dickers in taupe size 39. i am a true US 8.5/9. the 39's fit like a glove...PERFECT. now, THIS season, i bought them online in black size 39 again assuming that they would fit the same as last season. should i have gotten a 38 instead? unfortunately i haven't received them yet so this is where i need feedback from you ladies!!
i am so confused with her sizing. one season, they ran small to size. the next season, TTS. then this season, large to size! what is THE DEAL?????
i'm having the same dilemma - i am usually a size 8-8.5. tried the dixie's on at barneys a month ago but hey only had two sizes - 37 and 41. 41 was an obvious no, but 37 was only a tad snug (i was kind of surprised). I am assuming the boots at barneys were the 2011 ones, and they left me thinking i need a size 38 boot not a 39. did you get your boots and if so how was the fit?
tonka, is it the one that has suede in front and leather at the back?
the low version is called amely and the high boot version was the aniela.
it was just for one season.
the above boots are wedged heel... it also came in heeled version but i don't know their exact names.. good luck!

Do you ladies know the exact name of Isabel Marant mony boots WITHOUT the fringe and does IM make this style every year? If not what year was it came out, was it last year??
TIA
amacasa ~ thank you so much, I just bought a pair of black 2tons (suede & leather) high boots. I just checked the box and I did find "aniela" on the label
. It is a bit tall for me, but I find them very comfortable. I am super happy today!!Attachments

haven't gotten them yet. i won't be in the california until november and my BFF is holding them for me. i shall report back as soon as i can try them on. however, this is my second pair of dickers from the 2011 season. first pair (which i've already worn a million times) fit me perfect. they are an EU39. and just for reference, i wear a US9, a 39.5 or 40 in lanvin ballerinas, a 38.5 in fiorentini+baker eternity boots...well, pretty much a solid US9/EU39. sometimes (very rarely and depending where the shoes are made), i am an EU40.
hope that helps!
hmmm my feet are 39.5" long (tip of big toe to heel). I can't imagine 0.25 inches makes the difference in one size? I have fairly narrow feet as well.
yes please do! I'm thinking my best bet is to wait and actually try on a 38 and 39 when the new supply comes in. I was really just guessing that the 38 would fit based on the 37's level of snugness. I'll have to check the sizing of my F&B boots - that my be my decision maker.
i think a 39 is going to be too big for you. i have two girlfriends who are both US7.5 and they both got the dickers in the EU37. considering you're a US8-8.5, my guess is that you're going to be an EU38 in the dickers. and these boots stretch quite a bit. i've worn my taupe dickers (39) several times and in the morning, when i put them on, they are quite loose. but by the afternoon, my feet have swollen up and fill them out.
if you're thinking about ordering online without trying them on, you're pretty safe in ordering a 38. a 39 would DEFINITELY be too big.
