Direct-to-consumer luggage guru Away Travel will open its first physical store in Washington, DC in the Summer of 2023.
Washington DC Fashion and Style
Believe it or not, Washington, DC has become a destination for professional men’s clothing in recent years, from high-profile retailers Bonobos and Dutch-based Suit Supply (and the HMX Group’s regrettably short-lived Streets of Georgetown) to custom tailors Alton Lane and Knot Standard.
