About the Designer
Rivedroite Paris
We started Rive Droite in 2016 with a desire to create change and contribute, in our own way, to making sustainability the new standard in fashion.
The Brand
Aurélie and sisters Yasmine and Sofia are all Rive Droite girls. They draw their inspiration from the creativity of Paris, much like the energy of Brooklyn in New York, Kreuzberg in Berlin, and Shoreditch in London. As an homage, their products are named after the streets of the right bank of Paris: Célestins, Sauval, Darcy, Barbette, etc.
With over 10 years of professional experience, Aurélie, Sofia and Yasmine launched their business in 2016 with one common goal: to be entrepreneurs with a purpose. -Yasmine: Strategy & Development. Yasmine strongly believes that business should go hand in hand with ethics. She has an endless supply of innovative sustainable development ideas for Rive Droite. -Sofia: Design & Image. Sofia's eclectic background brought her to twist the traditional creative process by starting with preexisting materials. -Aurélie: Digital media. Aurélie's used her customer relations experience to put her skills to build an organic, integrative Rive Droite tribe.
We set up shop in Casablanca to be as close as possible to the recycled and upcycled materials that we source in the area. We verify the quality, sort and cut them within our manufacturing facility, to make the most of every piece and minimize waste. Our workshop manager works closely with our “Dudes” to coordinate production. We choose the best partners in Casablanca for dyeing, washing and embroidery. After our “Dudes” conduct their quality control checks, we verify the final products one last time before sending them to our facilities in Paris. This traceability requirement is a central part of all our processes.
We strive to upcycle existing materials and recycle natural, plastic-free materials like cotton to reduce our environmental impact. Recycling or upcycling allows us to lengthen the life of textiles that have already been produced, drastically reducing water consumption and CO2 emissions while taking advantage of quality materials.
