...the wonderful 'Wizard of Oz' to be exact.

Saks Fifth Avenue teamed up with the folks at Warner Bros. to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of everyone's favorite movie about munchkins, flying monkeys, Scarecrows with no brains and a daydreaming girl in a gingham dress with - you guessed it - ruby slippers.

Unveiled earlier this year at New York Fashion Week, some of the top shoe designers in the world have put their spin on the iconic piece of fairytale footwear:  A. Testoni, Abaete, Alberta Ferretti Betsy Johnson, Botkier, Christian Louboutin, Diane Von Furstenberg, Giuseppe Zanotti, Jimmy Choo, L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani, Lisa Pliner, Manolo Blahnik, Moschino, Oscar de la Renta, Pedro Garcia, Roger Vivier, Sergio Rossi, Stuart Weitzman, Tibi, Tuleh, Vivenne Tam and Yigal Azrouel.

That's a LOT of rubies!

So click your heels three times and say "There's no place like Saks" and you'll be transported to the shoe salon by means of the yellow brick road in San Francisco - well, it isn't exactly a yellow brick road and if you do see yellow on the road, avoid it at all costs.

The ruby slipper buffet will be on display through October 25 at Saks Fifth Avenue located on 384 Post Street in San Francisco.
