International Shoe Size Guide
Please check your size to our international shoe size guide before purchasing heels. We have more specific measurements below on posing heels that you may require.
How do you measure your feet?
We want to help you at EVERY STEP of the way to the stage. See the diagram on how to measure your feet and compare to the sizes in cm below. The ruler would be the pink line as in the picture. Take note, these are approximate measurements in centimetres and while we cannot 100% guarantee your heels will fit, you are able to return your heels if they are not the perfect fit.


Should you size up or down?
The posing heels are manufactured in whole sizes only. Therefore, we recommend that in most cases you SIZE DOWN for your posing heels as the plastic will stretch and expand over time. For example, if you are a UK 4.5 then go for a UK 4. There are a few posing heel exceptions such as sizing up for the Elegant heels as they run small. Please find a size up and size down guide in the posing heel criteria below. The last thing we want to see is ‘heel gap’ in your stage photos where you were told to size up and thus, actually have shoes on that are one size too big for your feet.
