I ordered these as a backup shoe for my wedding. I was planning on wearing CL's, but I am thinking I want something more comfortable. My mom is worried that the lace in my wedding dress will get caught on the brooch. Has anyone had trouble with this before? I obviously need to go to the bridal shop when they arrive to see if it's an issue. I was just wondering if this is a known problem. I have attached a pic of my dress for reference. There is a satin lining underneath. I think she is worried about it catching when I walk.

Gorgeous, gatorpooh! Your dress is stunning and these would be so incredible as a wedding shoe! Can you try them on with your dress and test them on a carpeted area to see how the brooch works with your dress?

I have the flats and have never had an issue with the brooch catching but I mostly wear them with skinny jeans/leggings. (However I sometimes have mine in a tote with a cashmere/silk scarf so I would have noticed if the brooch caught on my scarf)

Thank you! I got married two weeks ago and I had no issues with the brooch catching on my dress. They were perfect :smile1:

So I bought the Something Blue flats at last for a song, one problem they only had a size 39 and I really need a 39.5. Am I likely to be able to stretch these shoes? Yes they were a bargain but not a bargain if I'm never going to wear them!

I merged your Q to our Hangisi thread. I would bring them to a cobbler to stretch them for you. Satin is a little tougher than leather but they should give if you are within a half size range.

You may want to try searching "stretch" in this thread for other experiences.

I just recently started to buy designer shoes and goodness what a slippery slope!! I'm lusting after a pair of these and they'll be my first manolo's!!! Is the emerald green color always available (stock permitting) or is that a color that if it's available, I need to bite the bullet and snatch them up? I'm a standard size 8, so a size 38.5-39 in designer shoes, so it's a size that sells fast. The jewel tones in the hangisi are stunningly beautiful and fun
