The Tale of the Ruby Red Slipper


The fashion shows do take center stage during fashion week… but there are other displays in the tents that deserve equal attention.

The Wizard of Oz Ruby Slipper Collection is heavenly. No doubt Carrie from Sex in the City, would have gladly accepted Big's proposal with any of these beauties.

The Warner Bros. The Wizard of Oz production with Judy Garland, is turning 70 next year. In honor of this milestone, a team of fashion masterminds paid tribute to Dorothy’s iconic ruby slippers by re-imagining them in their own design style.

Each of these gems (pun intended, as many are enhanced with Swarovski crystals) have their own little glass house. The entire collection is also on display at Saks Fifth Avenue until September 13. The shoes will be auctioned off next year and all the proceeds with be given to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation.
