Dorothyâs Ruby Slippers, 1938. Sixteen-year-old Judy Garland wore these sequined shoes as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. In the original book by L. Frank Baum, Dorothyâ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.
