After having finished her studies in dress making and dress designing, Suzanne B strarted her first haute-couture boutique at the age of 20. When she decided to move her workshops to her chosen town of Marseilles, with her partner and daughter Brigitte, she brings 35 years of experience to fruitation by launching the "Rive 5" label, the pieces of which that bore witness to her originality, would be shown during the International salons of Geneva and Paris in 1980 beside the giants of french Haute-Couture.
The entire collection was welcomed as a triumph, which lead to the opening of a boutique of the same name "Rive 5"
Success followed success, and this time the "Rive 5" designers organised the show in Marseilles at the hearth of the Chateau de la Corniche. The collection was modeled by Parisienne models, one of which was a previous Balmain Model.
From the strength and cooperation of the two designers, a workshop for exportation is born.
