I saw this on mystyle.com. I was shocked. So, I'm wondering.... will fashionistas wear this?

Karl Lagerfeld with Gun ShoeKarl Lagerfeld with Gun Shoe

Karl Lagerfeld loves controversy. Last year, he paid homage to Eve and Lindsay Lohan's alcohol monitoring bracelets with an ankle purse. At this weekend's Cruise collection show in Miami, the models wore heels fashioned from guns. Pistol jewelry has been on the market for a while, but never a shotgun stiletto. We can just imagine how much trouble this confusion is going to cause at airport security.

    I always wanted to be like Mata Hari. Now I can be.
    Thank you, Karl Lagefeld. Thank you.

    Good. Bad. Or indifferent.
    Mr. Lagerfeld rocks my world.
    The guy's got a wicked sense of humor.
    I like that.

    I think that this is in poor taste. A gun shoe? Well at least James Bond would be proud (I think).

    Hopefully the gun doesn't really work!!! Yikes if someone with an ego owned that shoe!!!

    I think Karl Lagerfeld is a genius. He's not afraid to take risks (isn't that what fashion is about?). BUT.... I don't think I'd buy the shoes. I can't afford them, and I'd get some very strange looks. My husband works in the local prison, and he WOULD NOT approve.

    HAHAH! That's fantastic! This is how we call a brilliant, talented and original designer. Eye-wink

    Just lame. It's an attention getting item that has no basis in reality.

    I don't care who it is, anything that tries that hard to be edgy and controversial only comes off as lame.

    I don't even think it's particularly clever - they had a gun shoe on Get Smart in the 60s, so this is just Karl's take on one. Not interesting, not a social statement worth making. Just an ugly, obnoxious, over-priced shoe that's probably uncomfortable.

    He may like controversy but i think its lame, been done, nothing new and pretty stupid. I agree with stephley- not clever.

    I think it's interesting but not realistic and problematic for the reasons others have mentioned.

    I personally would never wear it because of its price/look.
