Khady Sy Savané, a Franco-Ivorian entrepreneur born into a family of tailors, created MIA Dreams after working in diverse fields including police and luxury hospitality. Her approach merges fashion with digital innovation, enabling clients to design custom garments via mobile applications in collaboration with local artisans.

MIA Dreams & Co, established in Dakar, utilizes wax-based techniques and Parisian tailoring styles before final production in Senegal. The brand operates a Paris store in the Goutte d’Or district, with its clothing designs documented in a 2016 report by The World. A 2026 Startup Medias profile highlights Sy Savané’s vision of fashion as a tool for expression and empowerment.
