Normally, the Manolo would be tempted to read some greater societal message into the appearance of such overtly gangsta bling shoes on the runway, but it is clear from everything the Manolo has read that they are here only because his Malignant Karlness thought they were cool.
And if you had a real gun in your shoe, a lot of people, not just fashionistas, would find themselves making a mad dash for, you should pardon the expression, the powder room. Addendum: Well, somebody liked them. He's apparently emotionally wedded to the notion that for something to qualify as high fashion, it must be at least 90 degrees out of phase with the real world.
