There are actually three different heel heights, 90, 105, and 110 mm.

Here's the comparison for 90 and 105, post #289. The 110 version is like 90 flared without metal disc.

Here are mine in 110 mm flared heels.

Hi,

Wasn't sure where to post this... I am buying a pair of Manolos for the first time from Bergdorf's online. It is a pair of Hangisi in the Royal Blue. I had gotten a pair of THE something blue manolo's from SATC originally (for my wedding) but a rhinestone was missing. Needless to say - they are now sold out. I found the hangisi's...

Are the something blues basically hangisi manolos? And soles are silver on the inside and not the tan leather of the something blues... sorry, these are my first manolos so if you could help a gal out that would be fantastic. It was a whole curiosity thing. The blue hangisi soles look like the gray hangisi's on the bergdorf website.

Thanks!!!!! :)

Hangisi is the same as "something blue." The Manolo boutique in NYC has always called this model Hangisi ever since the beginning. I think "something blue" is just used by Neiman's/Bergdorf's .

I bought mine from the Manolo boutique ... royal blue and black ... both have tan lining inside.

Thanks for your help :) I was just curious and I rarely see leather inside a manolo still but dyed silver for the hangisi except for the gray ones on bergdorf's/barneys/neimans :) Thanks :)

I mean if they came from bergdorf's they should be fine? Especially if the show a pair of grays lined similarly? My first pair had tan lining but attached is the pair I had to order instead. Sorry, I just want to make sure I am not getting the wool pulled over my eyes. Thanks for your help - by the way your closet is amazing and I think you have great style. http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod54530001&cmCat=search&searchType=&parentId=&icid=src_Manolo_Blahnik&rte=%252Fsearch.jhtml%253FN%253D0%2526Ntt%253Dmanolo%252Bsatin%2526_requestid%253D21619

This is just a complete guess, but is the silver lining new for the latest release of this shoe? It's been around for a few seasons now and maybe they are changing things up a little? Again, this is just a total guess, not based on prior knowledge or anything.

Phew! Thanks ladies. You are right. Just me being paranoid, just graduated law school so I wanted to make sure I was getting my monies worth :) I love the shoes. Thank you for your help! I can't wait to wear them.

I did a search but didn't find recent mention of fit. Anyone have input of sizing 1/2 up, or full size up for the Manolo Blahnik Hangisi pump? It's also known as "Something Blue" - Carrie Bradshaw wore it in the SATC movie. Also, do you know the different options for heel height? Thanks!

Tried these on for my wedding but decided to go with some Louboutins instead. I wear a 40. I have a hard time with the sizing that people in the US use for conversion, because a 40 is not a 10 but a size 9. I wear an 8.5 or 9 in US but a 39.5 or 40 in EU sizing.

I tried on the 110mm with the flared heel and went with a 40, but with the lower heel I did a 39.5.

So I've been looking at the Manolo Hangisi Jewel Satin Pumps.... Otherwise known as the "Sex and the City Shoes"

http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main...+Blahnik&N=4294911160+306418049&bmUID=jUP18Y2

I tried reading the reviews to get an idea of how they run but I was more confused than ever.

I'm planning on purchasing these for my wedding in September 2014. I've never owned Manolos before so I'm not sure how they run. I tried to go to my local Saks to try them on but they don't keep Manolos in stock much. They had two pairs in, a 5 and 6.5.

Typically I wear in 8 in regular shoes like flats & sandals and such. I usually will go up a 1/2 size in heels for comfort. But I've heard from some that they run a tad small and I should go an extra half size up and get a 9.

What do you guys think? Anyone with these shoes or similar that can offer up some insight?

Thank You!
