I don’t care for the shoes from an aesthetic perspective, but I really love the rest of her outfit.

I’m not sure about the shoes (not because of the godesses, just as a whole), but I think she looks divine. Timeless.

The idea of walking with someone else’s cherished diety literally under your feet, supporting your weight, collecting dust and dirt, scraping along the sidewalk, is just downright rude.

Hm…I guess I’m a minority, I actually liked them, especially with her outfit.

I’m not going to get into the PC debate on using ethno-religious iconography in fashion(godesses, feathers or otherwise) cause politics aside – I *hate* the shoe on a purely visual level.
They are fugly.

I think it looks like the poor woman is staggering under the weight of the wearer. A new image of “downtrodden womanhood.”

I find them weird and offensive. Walking around on naked women is just a bad image. I know it’s intended to be ornamental and not symbolic, but you can’t avoid the symbolism, since you are using a fertility Goddess in the design.
