In continued celebration of the 70th Anniversary of The Wizard of Oz in 2009, Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP) held a gala celebration last night to unveil The Ruby Slipper Collection and The Inspirations of Oz Fine Art Exhibition at FIDM/Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, now open to the public from June 10-21 in downtown Los Angeles. The Exhibition also features the My Pretty Collection from Tarina Tarantino. As part of the exclusive partnership, a design contest was also held to challenge FIDM students to create the best modern interpretation of Dorothy's iconic Ruby Slippers, as well as develop a jewelry collection inspired by the timeless film. Renowned accessories designer Tarina Tarantino and famed FIDM alumnus Nick Verreos ("Project Runway") mentored the FIDM students during the design competition.
