From the reviews

Came to the Alexandra store because they stock more misses sized clothing and were not disappointed. After trying pants and tops purchased 4 tops and 2 pairs of pants for an additional 40% off the marked price. Wonderfully made clothes at a great price. Was a wonderful shopping trip.

I’ve been a longtime Talbots customer, but I wanted to give a special shoutout to the Alexandria location and staff in recent months! I’ve always had great customer service here, but the manager and team have been extra helpful especially when I’m in a timely pinch…helping to pull what I need, look for the sizes,…

This is a big, airy store so it feels safe to shop there. It has a good selection of petite sizes and helpful staff. Have been shopping at this Talbots store for years.

★★★★★ — Donna, Mar 2021

I went to Talbots with my Mom this past weekend, and it was an excellent experience for her. She found everything that she needed and was impressed with the selection available at the store. The crisp colors, diverse clothing shapes, and variety made it all worthwhile.

Big & tall at Talbots

Reviews and the store's own info mention men's big & tall at Talbots — extended sizes, longer inseams and sleeve lengths, or a dedicated big & tall selection rather than a single rack. If you need specific sizes (tall lengths, extended necks, wide-width shoes), a quick call ahead saves the trip: stock in the far ends of the size run moves fast, and many stores can order your size even when it's not on the floor that day.
