Posted by on October 14th, 2008 in Shoes ·
Madonna sparked controversy wearing these gun-heeled Chanel platform shoes to the premier of her film Filth and Wisdom in New York last night.

Daily Mail Reporter calls these shoes a fashion faux pas and thinks that Madonna will be accused of insensitivity and glamorising gun crime. I tend to think it’s a daring but spot-on fashion statement - she wanted to shock people, and I think she succeeded.
What do you think of these daring shoes: yay or nay?
