It's probably not a good idea to try to fight to the death in these high-heeled gladiator sandals. Lucky for us, it's perfectly acceptable to wear a pair like these Alexander McQueen gladiator-inspired heels or a pair like these D&G gladiators with a summer dress. Gwyneth Paltrow is the latest celebrity to publicly declare her love of gladiator heels, wearing pair after pair to red carpet premiers of Iron Man.
Even if you don’t plan on wielding swords and fighting to the death in the Colosseum, gladiator sandals are hot for spring. Metallic gold or silver pairs look more elegant, gladiator heels look dangerously cool and flats are comfortable enough to take you from shopping straight to a party. When in Rome – or Anywhere, USA – wear gladiator sandals.
