Tamara Mellon with models wearing her Shoes and Bag collection. Meeting Tamara was very nice. She is so pretty and so stylish. When they shot this photo, Tamara exclaimed that "this is so unfair" that she is placed in the middle among these tall models.
A few days ago, I attended an event at Holt Renfrew, Bloor Street, Toronto welcoming Tamara Mellon and her new shoes and bags collection to the Store. As you know, Tamara Mellon was the CEO and co-founder of the famous luxury London shoe maker, Jimmy Choo. After leaving the Company in 2011, here she is now with her own luxury shoes and bags label under her own name, Tamara Mellon. The event at Holt Renfrew was the launch of the label exclusively at Holt Renfrew. Based on what I heard from the Holts Staff, the shoes are very comfortable, super stylish and modern. Tamara's bags are very luxurious too in leopard and zebra prints and made in different sizes from tote to evening bags. Check out her collection from this event.
What makes this Collection different from Jimmy Choo?
Completely different concept, completely different Business Model. The products have my own DNA.
It is more modern and it is what I am today.

I love the creative process, I love creating the product. I couldn't live without doing that. It's a natural step. I am not finished yet.

A woman for me is about attitude, a love of fashion and quality.

Tamara is definitely a Style Setter, a talented designer, a modern and shrewd Business woman.
