Customer Reviews
I’ve been wanting to purchase from American Duchess for a while, with one of my friends absolutely raving about them. I had a 1950’s dress that I made from a vintage pattern and I wanted a shoe that would go with it. I also wanted a shoe I could potentially wear for work and this also matched what I was looking for. I typically wear a 9-9.5 and so I ordered the 9.5 in the Soft Ivory. It’s a beautiful shoe and pretty comfortable out of the box. I did have a gap in the toe box area between the vamp and my foot, so I just added an insole just to help take up some space and prevent my foot from sliding. It worked well and the shoe is fabulous! Beautiful color and workmanship too. Unfortunately I don’t have a picture but I can definitely recommend the Marilyn style. Some older reviews mentioned that the Ivory color is more yellow, but I did receive a true ivory/soft white color so AD did address that!
I was not expecting it to be sooooo comfortable. Absolutly in love. Will be ordering my second one soon
These shoes are a stunning vintage reproduction. They are perfect in looks and in fit. I am so happy with how comfortable they are to wear! If you have bbeen eyeing these, get yourself a pair. You won't be disappointed!
I absolutely love these! They are so classic! I usually wear a 10 and went with that size. They are a little large and slip in the back a bit but I feel if I went down to a 9.5 the toe would be too tight so I am just going to stuff a tissue in the front to fix the slipping. I love the way they look and compliment all my retro inspired outfits. Another win from American Duchess! This is my 4th style from them and I can't get over the craftmanship and gorgeous designs and they are so comfortable!
We're happy to hear you love your Marilyns! We recommed trying the Back of Heel inserts if your heel is slipping out of the shoes when walking. You can find them on our website under accessories.
Just received my Marilyn brown mock croc, they are gorgeous and fit perfectly. The color was not what I expected but in a good way. It's a really dark brown with a hint of burgundy (at least to me) that really works well with my wardrobe. I can't wait to show them off.
