If you've been keeping up with influencer fashions as of late, you will know as well as I that one of the hottest pairs of shoes of the moment is the Red Camille Heels by French ballet shoe maker Repetto.
Popularized by French darling Lily Rose Depp, these shoes are the perfect dainty kitten heel to spice up any simple outfit. Throw them on with a pair of jeans and a white tank and you instantly go from paired down to extremely chic. These are especially perfect for those of you who dabble in the coquette aesthetic.
The much-coveted ballet flat, kitten heel hybrid has flooded our feeds for a few months. They've become so coveted that other fashion brands quickly took notice, with dupes and alternatives quickly springing up. The main issue is that dupes sell out quickly and the Repettos themselves, though readily available, are $390 CAD a pair. But fear not - I'm here to help you find the perfect pop of red this fall.
The Real Deal - Where to Find Them
For those of you willing to pay the $390 CAD price tag for authentic Repettos, here is where you can currently find them.
Check out the Repetto website to see if your size is in stock.
SSense
If they don't have your size available on the official site, you can also buy a pair off of Ssense.
Dupes and Alternatives
I will say that exact dupes are not always the best way to go. Sometimes it's best to put it this way - if later on down the line no one else is wearing them, will you still want to? Another consideration is the morals behind stealing designs. However, if you really like the look, I can't exactly blame you for wanting an alternative to those luxury prices. After all, I have these Steve Madden dupes myself. We're not all angels.
Here are the exact dupes:
Here are a fun Mary Jane style alternative:
When it comes to alternatives, the idea isn't to exactly copy the look of the original piece, but to buy something similar. These pieces are less likely to feel "last season" when you wear them in years to come. They can be a slightly different design, colour, or material.
If you want the dainty ballerina look and are willing to sacrifice the cherry red colour, feversole has a wide variety of ballerinas with a coquette flair.

This is one of my favourite places for trendy shoes that are great quality, and also made in Canada! The Joyce flats are my absolute fav here, and they are almost, dare I say, even better than the Repetto shoes. A bit more wearable in terms of comfort and colour, and cheaper. What's not to love?
Here are my picks:
Joyce Sangria Naplack
quilted ballet flats in red
Granby Red Patent
glossy mary janes in red
Peony Dark Red Leather
