Tamara Mellon co-founded Jimmy Choo in 1996 which grew it to be one of the most talked about brands of the past 20 years.  She exited the company in 2011 and launched her namesake brand in 2016 where she is now disrupting the luxury industry she helped build. When launching her new brand, Mellon was determined to build a female-led company as she experienced unequal pay and a lack of female support at Jimmy Choo. She co-founded the brand alongside Jill Layfield, who grew backcountry.com from $30 million to $500 million in five years, and has built a team of 90% women. 

Tamara shares how she went from an editor at British Vogue to co-founding Jimmy Choo and then starting her own luxury shoe line.
