Repetto finally in Manila!

my repetto flats are some of my favorite shoes. they’re simple, comfy and iconic. not surprising that a number of women i admire are repetto fans as well! ever since i saw these boards up around december i was counting down the days til the first Repetto store opens in Manila!

if you’ve been to repetto stores abroad, they are magical places. the window displays alone are very whimsical and feminine. it reminds me of degas’ ballerinas.

and i think most girls are actually frustrated ballerinas deep down (including myself!)
and thanks to the people of bench for allowing me to preview the store this evening. they were still fixing the store for tomorrow morning’s opening but i like what i’m seeing! (yes, it took them a few months from the initial january target to open, but who cares! it’s here!)

lovely chandeliers in the middle of the store

hundreds of ballet slippers everywhere! including these lovely classic ones in the palest of pinks.

the store carries the full line of repetto apparel, shoes and even bags!

they even have a small section for little ballerinas. surely my friends with little girls would love this corner! totally adorbs.

i have 3 pairs of repetto flats and i’m coming back to the store for this one!!! i’m glad to note that the price range is similar to HK(some are even cheaper!) and they have size 41s in a few styles. according to cathleen cotioco of suyen corp, more styles and colors will be coming in by after holy week, so brace yourselves, ladies!
the repetto store at greenbelt 3 will open tomorrow, april 4th, 11am.

i’m super excited for the store! i know repetto sizes runs small so I’m not sure what a size 41 actually is. i’m a US 9.5 – would you know if they carry sizes to fit that? thanks!

I’m a size 9/10 in US or 39/40 for European, I typically get a 40 or 41, it depends on the material of the ballet slippers
