Does anybody know where to find tall business suits for women suitable for
interviews and career? Not faddish clothing, traditional suits.

Depends on how tall you are. Land's End has a catalog called First Person
Singular with lots of traditional business clothing, many of which come in
tall sizes. But if you're much taller than me (6'1"), I wouldn't expect
them to fit. Then there's the Tall Classics catalog, if you happen to like
Pendleton - which I don't. Long Elegant Legs has some nice stuff, too, but
it's more trendy than traditional. And then there's THIS GUY who has
assembled quite a long list of clothing resources on his "Page for Tall
Women." You can easily find it by searching on that phrase. Or you'll
probably be getting an email from him, if you haven't already :-).

Damn, girl - those are some long elegant legs ya got there! The tall
catalogs I've shopped - specifically, Tall Classics and Long Elegant Legs -
have 36-inch inseams. The tall shops I've been to I think are too pricey,
and since I'm 6'1" I only need about 34" or 35" and can get what I need from
any number of catalogs these days. Maybe some of the taller women here know
where to get 38-inch inseams.
