The Wizard of Oz: Dorothy’s Shoes

Worn By: Judy Garland
Year: 1939
Value: $660,000*

There are few movie accessories more iconic than the red shoes that Dorothy wore in the Wizard of Oz. The 1939 movie, which starred Judy Garland, was a blockbuster hit, and everyone went home talking about the sparkling red shoes that stole the show.

The shoes went up for auction for $660,000 a few years ago, but these actually weren’t the only shoes from the film. The slippers were insured for $1-$2 million, but that didn’t stop normal wear-and-tear from occurring. Another pair of the sparkling shoes went up for auction, and these ruby-red accessories were sold for $2 million, more than double what these $660,000 pair got.
