Sixteen-year-old Judy Garland wore these sequined shoes as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz.
In the original book by L. Frank Baum, Dorothy’s magic slippers are silver; for the Technicolor movie, they were changed to ruby red to show up more vividly against the yellow-brick road. One of several pairs used during filming, these size-five shoes are well-worn, suggesting they were Garland’s primary pair for dancing scenes.

Dorothy sports ruby slippers for the grand reopening of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History
I made this cake for a friends birthday, her fancy dress party had a the theme of musicals and I knew that Sam and her family were all going as characters from the Wizard of Oz.. With Sam going as Dorothy. This was the first 12 inch Madeira cake I have ever baked, I think ensuring it was evenly baked was the most stressful part. The cake was vanilla madeira sponge with raspberry jam and vanilla buttercream filling. The cake was then covered in sugarpaste and I used a mixture of modelling paste and flowerpaste for the figures. The birthday girl was really pleased with the result
Definitely one of my faves from our shoot. Note the undone strap on the shoe on the left. I kept making her take it/them off so... the undone strap was a matter of convenience. But it's also a very deliberate aesthetic choice.
The rainbow, Emerald City and the ruby slippers are all made from gum paste. The shoes have edible glitter (sold at Michaels) sprinkled on them.
Not sure if it's the tight-fitting shoes, the flat chest, the manly legs, or just what's left of the beard stubble...

"the house began to pitch, the kitchen took a slich, it landed on the wicked witch in the middle of a ditch, which was not a happy situation for the wicked witch ...and she's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead."

I know they're blurred, but I just had to get this shot... I kept waiting to see this lady click her heels together three times...
The famous ruby slippers; if you have read the book, you will know that originally they were they "silver slippers". They were changed to "ruby" to make them more dramatic for the movie. Smithsonian Museum of American History, Washington, DC

These red tennies are the closest thing I've got to ruby slippers (they're even a bit sparkly!). As soon as I got the idea for this photo, I was worried that my parents would throw them out before I got home--I haven't worn them for years!
But here I am, my first day at home after seven weeks, four beds, and a trip (or two) across the ocean.
It's good to be back.
