When talking about size, they are all the same.

Now, if you look in the dictionary, what each word by itself means and can be used differently. There are regional differences too.

I would say that tamaño is more general than talla.

Hay tamaños, chico, medio, grande y extra grande. En estos vestidos hay tallas entre dos y doce.

As I understand it, when referring to shoe size, número is always used. For everything else in clothing, tamaño is common.

Talla is also used for clothing, when using numbers. Tamaño is commonly used when you refer to size (small, medium, etc.). - 00e657d4, Jan 19, 2012
