Read reviews of the Mirella range of shoes and you'll keep coming across similar comments - these flatter my feet, these look beautiful on, these shoes are pretty!   It's surprising, since all Mirella's shoes have square boxes (best suited to a Giselle foot), and it's not often you hear those described as flattering!

One other feature of all the Mirella pointe shoes is the very flat sole, making it easy to balance on the flat.

Academie - Mirella's shoe for the beginner.

Advanced - a light but tough shoe with a low-cut vamp and sides to flatter the foot

Elegance - this is a performance shoe, built to be super-quiet on stage

Professional - an unusual shoe with the insole glued in only two-thirds of the way, so the dancer can customize the shoe easily.

Mirella has an association with Bloch and some products are re-branded. However I don't believe their pointe shoes are made by Bloch, because they aren't similar to any of Bloch's own-brand pointe shoes.
