"Oh please, those are shoes from the television show Sex and the City. They were not even invented yet during World War 2."
Pegalita's ignorance is rather obvious in the above response.
Modern designer Gwendolyn Carrie found inspiration in a WWII museum in Stockholm when she saw a child's coat made of fish skin. It is more durable than leather or suede and it's waterproof, making it perfectly suitable for making shoes. And yes, as leather was scarce during that awful time, shoes had to be made of what was available, which was fish, of course!

Did the Nazis use tattoos for lampshades?
They didn't, but it is said that they used their skin to make other pieces of furniture, such as couches and rugs.____No. At the time of the early postwar trials of concentration camp guards some journalists said that a few of the guards had had lampshades made out of the skin of prisoners with erotic tattoos. The strange thing is that these allegations were made only about female guards - the implication being that they were demonically perverted. All this was entertaining stuff for some readers.It seems to be a popular urban legend.
