Macy's tends to have a very good "woman's" (god I hate that term) department for size 16's and 14W's which has some designer wear as well.
Lands' End does carry up to 16 and I find it fits but but agree that LL Bean is better quality
Eileen Fisher has some really wonderful outfits. They are comfortable and have more of a casual/trendy sort of look (at least, to my mind), but are excellent office clothing as well. I have a wool/silk skirt that's fifteen years old and still looks terrific today.
