Su Bühler began her career as a costume assistant at the Lower Saxony State Theater in Hanover and at the Residenztheater in Munich, where she has already received independent work and worked with the director Matthias Hartmann for the first time . This cooperation was to continue in the following years in Hamburg, Bochum, Zurich, Vienna and at some opera houses. Today the costume designer works regularly with Hartmann's wife, the director Alexandra Liedtke .

She designed the costumes for Hartmann's productions of People's Destruction or My Liver Is Senseless by Werner Schwab (in Hanover), Hamlet (in Munich), the world premiere of the Botho Strauss play The Kiss of Forgetting (at the Schauspielhaus Zurich ) and for The Jungfrau von Orléans (at the Deutsches Schauspielhaus in Hamburg). The critic Roland Kober describes her work for the Bothe-Strauss premiere as follows: "The figures themselves are worked with soft focus, Su Bühler surrounds their red-tinged costumes with a layer of tulle so that their edges become indistinct." In the years 2000 to In 2005 she was appointed head costume designer at the Schauspielhaus Bochum , and from 2005 to 2009 in the same position at the Schauspielhaus Zurich. In 2003 she designed the costumes for the successful production Mendy - the Wusical by Helge Schneider in Bochum .

Su Bühler also worked with the directors David Bösch , Andreas Kriegenburg , Jürgen Kruse , Konstanze Lauterbach , Wilfried Minks and Markus Trabusch . For the Salzburg Festival 2007 she designed the costumes for Christian Weise's production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream . Since 2009 she has been working regularly at the Vienna Burgtheater , and since 2014 also at the Theater in der Josefstadt .

Her work in the opera has taken her to Zurich, Vienna, Augsburg and the Michailowski Theater in Saint Petersburg.

Su Bühler has been nominated several times by the magazine Theater heute in the category Best Costume Design, for example for the two Botho Strauss world premieres The Kiss of Forgetting (1998, Zurich) and The Fool and His Wife Tonight in Pancommedia (2001, Bochum).
