Hot Shoe Alert: Madonna Takes Aim With Her Chanel Pistol Heels

Kevin Mazur/WireImage

The fashion world was abuzz after the Chanel Cruise 2009 collection showing — who else but Karl Lagerfeld would think to make stiletto heels actually lethal? The pistol-heeled shoes were a fashion favorite, but would anyone be brave enough to wear them on the red carpet? Well, Madonna has never shied away from starting a new trend or wearing a bold look, so the Material Girl hit the red carpet of her Filth and Wisdom premiere last night, sponsored by the Cinema Society and Dolce and Gabbana, in the gun-heeled shoes. We think it’s great that at 50-years old Madonna is still rocking the newest and coolest straight from the runway, but we want to know what you think! Tell us: Do you love Madonna’s heels or hate them?

I think all the controversy about these shoes is nothing short of pathetic and ridiculous! Someone getting shot has nothing to do with Madonna’s shoes. Do people who’s children have been stabbed to death freak out when they see a knife at a dinner table or in the kitchen? The victim culture permeating society makes me sick, not these shoes.

These shoes are imaginative, which is the idea of fashion design in its pure form. What you read into it is up to you.

Let’s not get carried away–the shoes are promoting violence?! I don’t like them, but it’s just because their ugly, not controversial.

i think these shoes do not in anyway state the need for volience.The shoes are somebodys creation.If freedom of style is wrong, should we frown upon military coats?

laras October 16th, 2008

Anybody remember that Dolce & Gabanna ad that got banned because it had knives in the pic, but was actually inspired by an 18th century painting? Well what exactly is the inspiration for these? That being said, if i could pull these off and was actually female i’d totally wear them.
