Sorry to confuse you Leyla! If you are normally a 38 in open toe pumps, then go for the 38.

In my case, they ran a 1/2 size small so I got a 39.5.

ilove,

they just arrived and between the 38 and 38.5 the 38 fits.
the 38.5 is for sure way too big.. as they seem to get more wobbly/stretchy with time. The Sales Director at Louboutin always wears them at our appointment and they are now like slippers on her

i love them though and thanks for your help

My Christian Louboutin Advice

I believe CLs are sized in French sizes (a French 40 is not the same as a Italian 40). Then, the fit of CLs can be very vary greatly from style to style, which adds to the confusion...

Here is my experience.
I hope it helps those in need of advice.

Caracolo +1, Size up a whole size

City Girl Sandals +1/2, Size Up a half size

Clichy 100mm (Patent) +1, Size Up a whole size

Declic 100mm & 130mm +1/2. Size Up a half size

Decollete 868 Jazz Black +1 1/2, Size Up a size and a half

Decollete 868 Jazz Taupe +1, Size Up a whole size

Decollete 868 Paillete +1, Size Up a whole size

Lady Gres Leather +1, Size Up a whole size

Lapono Patent +1 1/2 or 2, Size Up a size and a half (or two sizes)

Mad Mary +1 or 1 1/2, Size Up a whole size or size and a half

Minibout Zep +1/2, Size Up a half size

Metallika Boot +1 or 1 1/2, Size Up a whole size (or a size and a half)

New Simple Pump +1/2, Size Up a half size

Numero Prive +1/2, Size Up a half size

Pigalle 85mm Mesh +1/2, Size Up a half size

Pigalle 120mm Patent w/ Straight Heel +/-, True to size

Pigalle 120mm Blue Leopard Patent +1/2, Size Up a half size

Rolando (all fabrications) +1 or 1 1/2, Size Up a whole size (or size and a half)

Simple Pump +1/2, Size Up a half size

Som 1 100mm +1 1/2, Size Up a size and a half

Very Prive +1/2, Size up a half size

Yoyo 85mm +1, Size up a whole size

Yoyo 110mm +1, Size up a whole size

Please note: this is my personal experience, and everyone's feet and fit will vary.
I tend to go a little bigger than some.


Good luck!

^^^ Hmmmm...My guess is they are somewhat Pigalle-ish because of the toe box.

Could anybody advice me concerning sizing of the Miminettes? I have heard anything from sizing half a size down to half a size up. Rather confusing

I tried those on ages ago and they ran really small for me. I didn't know about CL sizing then so I was amazed. I'd say go up a full size. Good luck!

Does anyone know how these run?

I already purchased them(just 10 minutes ago!) from the Neiman website...But since I have to have them ship oversea, it's crucial for me to know the size.

SOS! I have a yoyo emergency! I wear a 39 in the Yoyo Zeppa (my first Louboutin style); have had the yoyo 85 (non platform) in 39.5 and now want the yoyo (non plat) in 110. I normally take most Louboutins in 39 (i.e. simple pump; bourge boot; bruges) but for the Rolande, which I take in 39.5. So, my question is: Do I need the Yoyo 110 in 39 or 39.5 (do they run as tiny as the yoyo 85 or more normal like the yoyo zeppa)? THANK YOU!!!
