I normally wear size 8. Based on the reviews that the shoes run small, I ordered a 9 and they were BIG. So I would think that they're true to size. Very nice shoes but the pointy toes did not help. They squished my toes very badly. If I try not to squish my toes, there would be a lot of toes cracks, or toe "cleavage" as some call them, not attractive at all. This seem to be true with all high heels but because this one is more pointy, it makes it worse. I like looking at them but they hurt my feet and will have to go back.
