Gretchen MonahanCEO, Gretta Enterprises
Style and Beauty Expert, Television Personality For nearly 10 years, style and beauty maven Gretchen Monahan has been helping fashionistas and celebrities look great. Known to friends as Gretta, she’s been sharing her tips and tricks to thousands of viewers each week as the twice-a-week go-to gal for fashion and accessories on ABC’s Rachael Ray daytime talk show. “I believe all women have a little bit of Cinderella in them. We all want to
look and feel special. The Naturalizer Signature Collection let’s us touch a little
bit of the fashion runway. And the really amazing thing is, our feet can still feel
comfortable. That’s what I call Modern Luxury!”
Gretta first made a name for herself in the late 1990s with her successful chain of Gretta Cole salons in the Boston area, and in 2003 opened GSpa, an express spa that offers efficient “mini” treatments with full VIP service. She also owns Gretta Luxe, an upscale boutique featuring shoes, clothes and accessories from celebrated European and American designers. Additional television work includes the “Gretta’s Got It” fashion segment on WHDH-TV, Boston’s NBC station, and appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The View. Gretta’s beauty and fashion advice has been featured in W Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, Elle and Self. Gretta also serves as personal stylist to a celebrity client roster that includes Rachael Ray and Kelly Ripa. Gretta began her fashion career at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology, but left before graduation to pursue her entrepreneurial plans. She graduated from the Owners/President/Management program at Harvard Business School. Gretta lives in Boston to manage her ever-growing business endeavors, but travels frequently to New York. |
