The brand today has garnered a notable global reputation and a robust worldwide client base, across many countries, namely: France, Spain, UK, USA, Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan, Venezuela, Australia, KSA, UAE, Jordan, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, and Senegal.

milia m designs have been regularly featured in international magazines such as Glamour, Tendencias, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan Italy, Madame Figaro Japan, and LʼOfficiel Levant. milia m collections have been exhibited in Paris, Milan and Tokyo. The brand received public acclaim in fashion shows at the launch of the Abu Dhabi Fashion week and at the Milan Fashion Week in 2007 and 2008, respectively.
