Malia Mills specializes in luxury swim, ready to wear and accessories – essentials imbued with joie de vivre to pack your dream suitcase. Our brand was launched in Malia’s downtown apartment in New York City in 1993. Our mission, mantra and driving force is Love thy Differences™.
Our headquarters are in New York City where we have our Malia Mills flagship store in SoHo. We also have stores in Marin, Montecito and Los Angeles as well as a seasonal store in Bridgehampton.
Our stores are small, dynamic spaces and our one-on-one fit and styling sessions are where we make connections and swap stories. We take pride in sharing the many ways our luxurious, made in America, bra-sized swim and ready-to-wear can be worn to celebrate the feminine fierce. We also showcase beautiful products from other designers we admire. Please visit us at www.maliamills.com for more.
