This East Greenwich Men's Clothing Studio Has Converted To A Full Retail Storefront

EAST GREENWICH, RI — Roaring Fashions, a luxury men's clothing company in East Greenwich, has expanded its studio-style showroom into a retail storefront in downtown.

A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the converted store at 36 Main St. on Thursday, attended by fellow members of the East Greenwich Chamber of Commerce, clients, friends, family, local residents, and Main Street Association volunteers.

Roaring Fashions’ Studio On Main joins three wedding and special event industry businesses, PDR Events, New England Invitations, and Bridal Finery, who share the 1,400-square-foot space.

Established in 2020, Roaring Fashions is a men’s custom suit and fine clothing business owned and operated by East Greenwich resident Cheryl Petteruti, the only female men’s clothier in Rhode Island.

"At the age of 50, as a newly divorced mother of five, I began working part-time as a home-based stylist for men’s clothing," Petteruti said. "Over the next 10 years, I built the business into a full-time enterprise curating personalized, custom wardrobes for discerning clientele to look and feel spectacular from the boardwalk to the boardroom — wherever life takes them."

Luxury clothing brands offered by Roaring Fashions include Alan Paine, Armin Oehler, BARMAS, Daniel Fiesoli, ETERNA, Robert Comstock, Ruth Graves, Whaler Knits, Waterville, w.kleinberg, and more.

"Whether it’s professional, evening, casual, smart casual, wedding or athleisure wear attire, we have something for every man to reflect their individuality and complement their physique and lifestyle," Petteruti said. "We can also outfit an entire wedding trousseau for the groom and wedding party that will take them from rehearsals to the honeymoon. And Father’s Day is around the corner, so a one-hour fashion consultation makes a great gift idea for that special man in your life."

Hours for the new location are 4 to 8 p.m. Thursday and Friday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekends and by appointment.
