Deal du Jour at Gilt.com: Melissa Shoes




There are still many styles left of Melissa Shoes on sale now at Gilt.com, including retro cool wedges (shown above, $49) and Vivienne Westwood rain boots ($89). The savings are definitely legit. For example, the Campana Corallo Jelly Flats are $39 at Gilt.com versus $79 at Nordstrom.com. If you like this brand, now's the time to buy them. My sister has a pair and says they are comfortable and don't make her feet sweat. I've never tried them so I can't comment!

About the brand: Brazilian brand Melissa has made its mark on the ubiquitous plastic jelly shoe over the last 30 years, selling variations on the original design in the most exclusive boutiques around the world and collaborating with luminary designers and architects - Vivienne Westwood and Zaha Hadid amongst others. The company, which aims to manufacture according to high environmental standards, is also renowned in its native Sao Paolo for creating a book on sustainable practices in design – the first of its kind to be published in Brazil.
