Halle Berry '5th Avenue' Shoe Line To Debut In March (PHOTOS)

Some celebrity clothing lines make perfect sense: Gwen Stefani's grungy-chic L.A.M.B., for example, or Dita Von Teese's Von Follies lingerie.

Then sometimes celebs team up for product lines that seem to make no sense at all.

Today we glimpsed pictures of Halle Berry shooting a shoe commercial... in Germany. The Hollywood star was on a set in Berlin, promoting her new line for German shoe chain Deichmann to be called 5th Avenue by Halle Berry.

We're not sure why Berry chose to launch a line with Deichmann, a brand we'll admit we'd never heard of. We're also not so clear on why Berry would have a shoe collection to begin with, seeing as she's not famous for being high heel-crazy (like some stars we know), nor is she known for her remarkable red carpet footwear (she's no Daphne Guinness or Lady Gaga).

But for whatever reason, Halle is Deichmann's new spokesperson and has designed a whole collection that will hit European stores in March.

Curious what they'll look like? Check out pics of Halle's shoot below.

they look like good comfortable shoes for daily wear by people who know that stiletto heels should be saved for special occasions.

I'm glad Hallie got off her long hair kick. I've never seen anyone look so good in a pixie cut as her.

Sorry you h8 yourself so much, but get professional help and stop taking it out on everyone else.

You wrote: "...promoting her new line for German shoe chain Deichmann to be called 5th Avenue by Halle Berry."

Deichmann's 5th Avenua line of shoes is not a new line. It was previously fronted by Cindy Crawford. Now Halle Berry is the new face fronting the line. They are just using her name, she's not the designer.

Maybe Halle can bring some of those jobs to the US......Imagine, maybe the Aristocraps will refuse to wear shoes produced by workers who get 6 weeks of vacation, free healthcare, educatin and rational mass transportation.... who belong to a GET THIS A FRIGGING UNION......

Unfortunately, there is no chance of that happening. Deichmann is by far Europe's largest seller of (cheap) shoes, with an annual turnover of over €3.9 billion, but the shoes are not made in Europe. They are all manufactured in Asia, with their largest supplier having large factories in Cambodia.

I didn't see but a few examples of the shoe line, but they look like good comfortable shoes for daily wear by people who know that stiletto heels should be saved for special occasions. Our feet are the foundation of our bodies and should be treated with respect.

Thank you mzrecycle. That's what I was thinking. Not every woman wants to totter around on 6 inch heels at the risk of breaking her neck.
