For Women -  Lord & Taylor has a reasonably priced selection of designer formal dresses and gowns.  Be sure to sign up for their free email list, which offers frequent discounts that are not available in the store.  5255 Western Ave. NW, Washington, DC, 20015.  (Friendship Heights).

For Men -  JoS. A. Bank is the best bet because it consistently beats the prices at higher-end department stores, for similar quality merchandise.  A free corporate membership will save you 20% on regular priced items.  555 11th St NW, Washington, DC 20001 (Downtown).
