Ladies, if you haven’t heard of Ruth’s Lingerie, you’re in for a treat. The Cranston-based lingerie store carries the most extensive bra inventory in New England. Tucked in a cute little storefront off Rolfe Square, the store carries well-known American and European brands in all sizes and styles of bra – be it bandeaus, long lines or bralettes. There are also goods for every price range, from high-end lingerie to more practical, everyday wear. Swimwear is also sold year round. The floor space and walls are stacked high with every kind of style you could imagine. Seriously – stacked.
But, one of the coolest parts about Ruth’s isn’t just its vast inventory, but its amazing story. It all started in 1954 when, wanting to earn some extra money for her family, Ruth Lubinsky opened Ruth’s Shop of Corsetry. Her mother was the first seamstress for the store. Back in a time when it was unusual for women to own and run a business, let alone work, Ruth’s did pretty well. To this day, it remains a family-run business, with Ruth’s daughter, Carol Schwebel now at the helm. And it remains committed to the values it was founded on, namely outstanding customer service.
Carol explains that helpful customer service is paramount. Clients receive one-on-one service from Ruth’s highly knowledgeable team. “Our staff is very experienced. They know how to fit a bra and they know what bra does best with each body type – they’re terrific,” says Carol. “The staff often prides themselves at bringing a client a bra and watching the client’s jaw drop as they’re amazed at how well the garment fits, feels comfortable and transforms how they look in their clothing. That type of service isn’t readily available in most of the retail world these days.” Anyone who’s ever shopped for a bra knows how frustrating it can sometimes be to find one that’s the perfect fit. Because Ruth’s carries such a variety of styles, shape and sizes – and the people who work there really understand the garments and the sizing – that problem is quickly solved.
