When my DD was in high school we bought her a suit for Model UN at Banana Republic.

Ann Taylor and Aritizia -- both have stores at Tysons. Here is a glance at the jackets at Aritzia: https://www.aritzia.com/us/en/clothing/coats-jackets/jackets-blazer

Banana Republic factory has decent options, if you’re not looking for something high-end.

Good luck!

Any suggestions where to look?


Ann Taylor. Possibly Zara.

Macy's. Try Calvin Klein suits if available. Try the petite section if she is 5'4" or shorter.

If you need a different size on separates, consider asking the cash register person about doing a store lookup or ship to store.

Online is a good complement to in-store product size shortages.

Unfortunately I’d also suggest going to a mall with decent anchor stores (eg, Macys, Nordstrom, etc) and tailoring Unfortunately because selection in person is grim in a lot of places.

DD (16) needs a suit. We’ve looked in several stores and the current styles we’ve seen seem to be that the suit jackets are either too short or way too long. She needs a suit with a jacket that’s a classic length, hitting lower on the hip. Of course now it’s become last-minute.
