Ruby Slippers: Part Two - The Designer's Actual Shoes Are Wicked!




Awhile back I informed you that several designers were asked to reinterpret Dorothy's Ruby Slippers from The Wizard of Oz in honor of the 70th anniversary and for an auction on September 20th to benefit the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

I shared with you many of the 19 participating designers' sketches previously and now have photos of the actual shoes for you!! Be sure to check out the other post to see how they've gone from concept to reality.
