Dorothy Steps into the 21st Century with The Wizard of Oz Ruby Slipper Collection.

From platform to stiletto heels, all the shoes from the Ruby Slipper Collection, unveiled at a party to mark New York Fashion Week, are settled on the 1939 Hollywood movie starring Judy Garland as Dorothy.

What would Dorothy wear now?”’ Michael Fink, Saks Fifth Avenue fashion director, told Reuters in an interview.

Then it was like

Go wild! Have fun with it!’ That’s the only direction we gave the designers,” he added.

The Slipper collection was instructioned by Swarovski, which sacrificed the crystals, in partnership with Saks and Warner Brothers and contains shoes by a dozen designers ranging from Gwen Stefani, Abaete to Manolo Blahnik.

Betsey Johnson, who is known for whimsical women styles, used red tulle bows on a platform shoe with chunky crystals.

Dorothy’s a modern girl. She’s clubbing. So she’s got a downtown funky shoe with her little anklets,” Fink said, showing a display window at the store where a 20-something Dorothy mannequin wore a green mini-dress with Betsey’s ruby slippers to the Emerald Club.

Shoe brand A. Testoni for the women’s and mens luxury market is specializing in exotic skins and luxury leathers, as shown in their “Ruby Slipper”. They have a passion for creating cosy fashion shoes. There is a Swarovski enchased heart on the bow of the shoe

The heart represents A. Testoni’s emotion for creating shoes that is snug as well as where Dorothy’s heart was and wanted to be at home.

Alberta Ferretti

Designer Alberta Ferretti took part in this project and designed a pair of ruby wedges.

Abaete

Each pair is worth at least $1000, adding that plain leather couture shoes at Saks begin at $650.

But since the footwear will be raffled for charity next year, in conjunction with the 70th anniversary of the movie’s release, each pair could easily fetch much more.
