I hope someone else chimes in with more suggestions. If not, I’d be happy to make some suggestions if you’re willing to go beyond Georgetown.

NP - I'd love more suggestions and am not limited to G'town. Online fine too. Thanks!

Ok, since I don’t know what your goals are or your budget, here’s a wide range of options. I assume that you already know about stores like Macy’s, Old Navy and the Gap. There are some inexpensive options like ASOS, options that always have sales and coupons (Talbots and Lands End), distinct labels like Eileen Fisher and Lafayette, Torrid for trendy stuff, and other options for everything from staples (Universal Standards) to the Nordstrom stores which will have a wide range of options and helpful customer service.

If none of these options is quite what you’re looking for, the more specific you can be, the easier it will be to make good suggestions.
Some of these options have stores in or near DC, others don’t.
Enjoy!

Universal Standard
Eileen Fisher
Lafayette 148
Nordstrom
Nordstrom Rack
Torrid (especially for jeans)
Good American (especially for jeans)
Talbots (classics)
ASOS Curve
Lands End (Swim suits, basics)

Why Georgetown? It’s so over and half empty

Something like 40% of storefronts in Georgetown are shuttered… I think I saw a plus sized section at Everlane.

Unless they’ve tried finding 14s in one of the many many stores that don’t carry anything over a 10. Or they actually wear 14W, which has a different fit vs a Misses 14.

But hey, PP, you got your laughs in, right?

I consider plus size anything over a 10.

Not a lot. Athleta is one.

Is there a Chico's in Georgetown? One of my colleagues wears a lot of Chico's clothing and she is an 18-20-22 depending.

Thank you. I am looking for sizes 18-20.

Which clothing stores in Georgetown carry plus sizes?
