Earlier this week, we asked you what you thought was the most noteworthy sample sale, and now we have our first official Racked Awards 2014 winner: The Tamara Mellon sample sale!

Surprisingly coming in over trustworthy favorites Diptyque and Diane von Furstenberg, the designer's first-ever sale featured sandals starting at $50 and her trademark legging boots for only $150—more than 90% off retail price—plus great deal on handbags and ready-to-wear. Readers wrote in a whopping total of 49 comments talking about quality, price, stock, and more that demonstrated interest in the sale—so maybe this result is not so surprising, after all.

Keep these sales coming, Tamara! To see the full results, head to the link below.
