How to Choose the Right Shoe Size
Bella Belle shoes come in US sizing.
- Each style's fit is listed on its product description section. If an item is stated as true to size, order your usual dress shoe size. If an item is larger than marked, please size down.
- If your feet are wide, we suggest going up half a size for comfort. The styles made from mesh are more flexible and can accommodate wider feet.
- For our lovely international customers, please refer to the Size Chart
- Fits big: If your shoes fit slightly big (the gap is less than a finger), you can fill the gap with insole insert and heel liner. Note: You don't want your shoes to fit too snug because your feet will swell by the end of the night.
- Fits small: If your shoes fit slightly small but it's not painful, wear thick socks to stretch and break in the shoes.
- Slingback slides down: Add a heel liner in the toe are and fashion tape on the slingback itself to feel more secure.
