Antoinette 18th Century Mules (Green)

For reference, I usually wear US size 6.5, JP size 24.5 cm.

I've admired these shoes online for over a year, and finally pulled the trigger during a sale. I got the last pair in 6.5, and these are my very first pair of American Duchess shoes. I think I waited 2 weeks thinking AD was just swamped with orders, but I got an email from Christina saying that there was a mixup and my shoes ended up in the US instead of Canada! I'm not sure what she did behind the scenes to track down my shoes, but 2 days after her email my shoes showed up on my doorstep! Very grateful for Christina for reaching out and letting me know. She's an angel!!

About the size, it does feel a little small! I only really have 1 pair of B width heels from Coach (Nikola slingbacks), where size 7 was too big but 6 and 6.5 fit well. I have other heels from years ago that are size 6 (they're a bit small now), but was unsure if they were B width. So I only had my Coach Nikolas for reference. Tbh I hesitated so long on the Antoinettes bc my shoe size doesn't make sense! I've bought the wrong size shoes so many times in the past. Maybe I should have gone with size 7 for the Antoinettes because it feels a little tight on my right foot. BUT the 6.5 ones do fit and I love them. They arrived perfect, no scratches or blemishes despite being the last pair. I've been wearing them around my room and I feel like a princess! So happy with my purchase. I do kind of wish the inside sole was white as well so it's more seamless when wearing white stockings.

For my next AD shoes, I think I'm going to get them full price so I can exchange them for a different size if needed. The craftmanship and customer service are worth it. Thank you again! 💖

This gorgeous shoe is so stunningly versatile for your wardrobe. It looks FABULOUS for reenacting but also with stylish jeans! I have received so many compliments wearing them to church with a nice dress, too. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 🌟

Absolutely gorgeous mule! I would say to order at least a half size up. I’m usually a 9 but the 9.5 fit like a glove!

I ordered these to match a French blue silk dress I am going to wear to my nephew's wedding. The dress is very plain, so I thought I would gussy it up a little with nice shoes and a handbag. These shoes are perfect - they match and they look amazing, and I am all set. They are also pretty surprisingly comfortable (which I did not expect - one usually must suffer for fashion.) If you are buying these as a bride for a wedding, the trim on the top is silver (not as white as it appears in the photos) so you probably will have to go with silver jewelry. Still, these shoes would make a fun "something blue" for a bride. I notice in the other reviews that some people found them to be too tight across the top - they fit me just fine, but I also have a narrow foot (A or B).

These shoes fit true to size and are quite comfortable. I was worried they’d be too tight because of the other review, but they are fitted to my foot without any pinching and even have a little room in the vamp. The point of the top of one side initially dug into the top of my foot a bit, but it was easily bent back up a bit. I’m happy with my purchase, and can’t wait to wear them for my wedding!
