The Ruby Slippers
The Ruby Slippers were regular shoes covered with red satin and lined with cream colored kid leather. There are 2300 sequins per shoe. The leather bow has 46 rhinestones, 42 bugle beads, 3 costume jewels, and there was red felt applied to the soles of the shoes to muffle the sounds of footsteps. They were originally intended to be silver like in the book, however they decided to change them to red to take advantage of the technicolor.
