I purchased a pair of beautiful Manolo’s that I KNEW just had to be my wedding shoes. They are one size too small (its an 8 and I wear a 9). What is the best way to stretch the width to a 9?

Bring them to a shoe repair shop or even to a large Macy’s. They have special machines that can gently strech your shoes. I’m not sure how much they can stretch them. My friend had a pair that was a bit too tight across the front of her foot and she had them strecthed at a department store. They fit her perfectly after that.
Good luck, those are beautiful!

It depends. Some Manolos run small, so I honesty don’t know about streching the shoe to fit. Best advice take your shoe to Neiman’s or Saks Fifth or Nordstroms and ask them whether they think they could stretch your shoe. They are beautiful! Good Luck 🙂

I had some shoes stretched @ a shoe repair shop – it worked! Also they sell inserts in which you can widen them daily by cranking the inserts daily….also found at the shoe repair shop.

Do they fit length wise? Do your toes stick out the front? The shoe won’t stretch in length, except you could get the strap lengthened.
If it’s just the toe box that’s too narrow, either take it to a cobbler for stretching or put your feet, in socks, in the shoes, put your hair drier to them, and let them cool while your foot is inside them. Repeatedly.

Im totally the wrong person to give advise on this because I have wide feet and cram them into anything! I just put on lotion and they go right in!
DSW ( im sure other places) sell this wooden thing and you just slide it in and turn the top and it opends them up
