This is a custom-made size 5B pair of shoes that we will be using to make Judy Garland's ruby slippers. It also features a beautiful interior with a gold company stamp on the right shoe like the originals that reads "Innes Shoe Co., Los Angeles, Hollywood, Pasadena".
The shape and small size of this base shoes fits perfectly on Judy Garland as Dorothy's feet, and they are identical to the original pair on display at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.
The studio wanted this pair to be a bit sexier on Judy Garland, by adding longer heels and more of a pointy toes than the other pairs made for the movie, so for serious Oz fans this is pretty much the ruby slippers you want to get your hands on, and they will be crafted by an experienced ruby slipper maker.
The studio thought about making all ruby slippers with long heels but then Judy Garland as Dorothy would look tall when standing with the other characters, so they decided that she wear a pair with long heels in closeup shots and the Munchkinland scenes where she was required to appear much taller than the Munchkins.
This will be a hand-sewn pair of ruby slippers using the same technique as the originals so there's lots of sewing time ahead, and no party time.
