the Catalina | custom order

A custom order for elegant, feminine bridal heels with a refined vintage feel. We’ll be looking for a mid-height designer heel with a strap, prioritizing beautiful satin finishes, sophisticated silhouettes, and either a soft bridal ivory or a special “something blue” colorway inspired by your reference photos.

Pointed-toe and open-toe styles will both be considered, with an emphasis on pairs that feel romantic and distinctive while still remaining polished and timeless.

Up to 8 custom-curated options are included.

DETAILS

  • Size: US 7
  • Heel Height: Mid heel, approximately 2–3.5 inches
  • Preferred Colors: Ivory / soft bridal neutrals or a delicate “something blue”
  • Material: Satin strongly preferred; other elevated textile finishes may also be considered
  • Silhouette: Pointed or open toe with some form of strap; slingbacks and other elegant strapped silhouettes are especially well suited
  • Embellishments: None requested
  • Designer Focus: Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo, Prada, Vera Wang, Stuart Weitzman & comparable luxury/high-quality designers

PRICING NOTES

This is a flat-rate custom order and includes the selected pair of heels, personalized sourcing, any minor repairs or fit modifications needed, and gift packaging. No additional fees.

SOURCING NOTES

  • Your first 2–3 curated options will be presented within 1 business day of listing purchase.
  • From there, the search will continue to be refined based on your feedback.
  • Up to 8 total options are included if needed.
  • Typical sourcing time is approximately 2–6 weeks, although the perfect pair may be found much sooner.
  • If the vintage market has been thoroughly exhausted and none of the presented options are approved, store credit equal to the full purchase value will be issued. This may be applied toward another custom order or any available vintage piece from From Ari.

PLEASE NOTE

The vintage designer market is finite, and every pair available is unique. Exact colors, silhouettes, materials and sizing cannot always be replicated from inspiration imagery. Flexibility within the overall vision allows me to source the strongest possible options.

This mink coat is a dream! Ari was so attentive in understanding what I wanted and sourcing the perfect fur for me. It’s full length, a gorgeous dark brown color, and in pristine condition. It came right on time for Valentine’s Day and a snowstorm. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I love my pieces!! I purchased Mink Shawls for the holidays and the quality is amazing. The curated collections are so beautiful and the attention to detail, down to the packaging is impeccable. Will definitely be purchasing again in the future! ❤️

Not only was my custom fur absolutely perfect and fit like a glove, but the entire experience was truly 10/10. The seller was incredibly communicative and genuinely invested in bringing my vision to life. Sourcing and shipping were impressively fast, which meant I could still wear my fur this season — such a win! The packaging was thoughtful and beautifully curated, showing so much care in every detail. This was hands down the best experience I’ve had with a vintage source, and I will absolutely be repurchasing from Charming Cherub.
