Beautifully made shoes. I got the Premiere in Bronze and they are very pretty. They are comfortable for longer than most all heels, but there is only so long you can wear any heel before your feet hurt. Not from the toe box area (which is roomy), but just overall b/c of having your foot at an angle on a thin heel. I ordered the Ruby in Silver and the wide heel is very comfortable...so I ordered the same style in Gold (had to wait a few months for them to be back in stock) and Pale Taupe suede (preorder, waiting). The size recommendation is very true, so if they tell you to size down you should! So Premiere I was a my usual 37 but Ruby 36 per their recommendation to size down.
