Our shoes run true to US size, and are based on a medium-width foot. We suggest ordering your US shoe size, except when noted otherwise. Our fit runs closest to Jimmy Choo, as Tamara was the co-founder and fit model for Jimmy Choo. Tamara is also our fit model. Additionally, our Liaison team fit tests all of our shoes, and they’re happy to advise you with any other questions.

We strive to give women what they want when they want it— but our shoes sell out fast. When this happens, we quickly order more. So, certain shoes on our website are available for preorder, allowing customers to purchase and reserve a pair before they’re available to ship. Preordered shoes will be shipped on the indicated date, and you’ll get an email when your order ships.

Digital gift cards are issued as digital codes that can be treated like cash on our website and can be combined with other payment methods. When a digital gift card is purchased, it will be emailed to the purchaser who can forward the email to the recipient.

When an order paid with a digital gift card is returned, the refund for the item will go back to the same digital gift card code for re-use.

Orders for digital gift cards are not refundable.

We accept major credit/debit cards including Visa, MasterCard, Amercian Express, and Discover. We also accept Apple Pay, PayPal, Shopify Pay, Amazon Pay and Affirm.

We offer financing through Affirm, a third-party lender. To use Affirm, simply add your item(s) to your cart and go to the checkout page. In the Payment Method section, select Affirm as the payment method, and you will be externally directed to Affirm’s application portal. Completing the application takes less than 10 minutes. Affirm will also run a soft-credit check which won’t impact your score. If approved, Affirm will issue a loan for a partial amount or the full amount of the order. Tamara Mellon cannot modify or cancel Affirm payments, and Affirm must be contacted directly for any of these types of inquiries.

Promo codes can be applied to the E-Gift Card & Offer Code field at checkout. Offer may not be combined with any additional discounts.

An order confirmation is sent to the email address on file as soon as the order is submitted.

If it takes longer than a few minutes to receive your order confirmation, please check your spam.

All our shoes are handcrafted in family-owned factories in Italy.

Our shoes are currently offered in the following materials:

Upper: leather, patent leather, abrasivato (similar to patent leather), specchio (mirrored leather), haircalf, velvet, elaphe (snakeskin), PVC, and eel.

Sole: 100% leather, vibram rubber sole, and crepe rubber sole.

Most of our shoes have a clear protective sticker on the sole to protect the sole before wear. To remove the sole protector, look for the faint line at the arch of the shoe and peel from the arch to fully remove the protective sticker.

If your sole appears to be shredding after wear, the sole protector likely hasn’t been fully removed. Please send the Liaison team an image of your soles to confirm via email at atyourservice@tamaramellon.com.
