Do these run true to size?

Yes, these run true to size. Fabulicious does not carry half sizes. If between sizes, go up.

How does the platform affect the height of the Gala-01DM?

The 4.5-inch heel carries the full stiletto angle with no platform offset. The foot sits at a steeper angle, which is more demanding than a platform heel of the same height. Most wearers manage comfortably for event wear after a short break-in.

What should I know before wearing the Gala-01DM for the first time?

Slip the Gala-01DM on at home for a short trial before your first event. Open slide and sandal designs require minimal break-in and most wearers feel comfortable from the first wear. Walking on smooth indoor surfaces first helps you find your balance at the heel height and builds confidence before the occasion.

Who is the Gala-01DM best suited for?

A go to for fitness competitors, physique athletes and posing coaches who need a clear heel for bikini, figure, wellness and physique competitions. The Gala-01DM is also popular for pageants, performances, nights out and formal occasions where a polished clear heel elongates the leg and completes the look. Available at Shoefreaks in the Fitness Competition Heels collection.

Is the Gala-01DM vegan, how do I care for it, and how long will it last?

Yes, fully vegan. The Gala-01DM uses synthetic materials with no animal-derived components. To care for them, wipe the upper with a damp cloth after wear, allow to air dry and store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the finish. With proper care between outings they hold up well for event and occasion wear.
