stillettos have a little thinner heel, and are a little higher than heels. heels are more like pumps

Yes, it is the inch of the heel, but it's also the style of the heel. Most stilletos are very skinny and high heels that's what makes them stilletos. You can also have a chunky heel that's a stilleto because it's so high.

all stilletos are heels.. but not all heels are stilletos...
basically a shoe with a thin heel is a stilleto...and they're high.

I just read this recently. If you measure the width of the heel, where it touches the ground, and it is less than 1cm than it is a stiletto.

Heels are heels of any height or width, stilettos are tall, skinny heels.
