Where does Dorothy get the red shoes from in wizard of oz?

Dorothy doesn't get the ruby slippers (not red shoes) from anyone in the movie. She's wearing them when the tornado hits her house and carries her to Oz!

Here's a breakdown:

* The book: In L. Frank Baum's original book, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," Dorothy's shoes are silver, not ruby.

* The movie: MGM changed the color to ruby for the film, and the slippers became a iconic symbol of the movie.

So, Dorothy's ruby slippers were always hers. They were a part of her life in Kansas and journeyed with her to Oz.
