A linen suit

I'm looking for a place to buy an off-white, pure linen suit. I can't really find any at my local big and tall shops (6'5", and heavier than I should be), and anywhere I've seen that does have them doesn't have them in my sizem (they didn't in spring or summer, either, so I don't think it's the season). I might try a custom tailor (the Hong Kong tailors that drop by occasionally do very good work, as far as I've seen, and yes, I can tell the difference), but they're a little pricy for me at the moment.

2-4 button, creamy or grey white, must be pure linen (I don't wear polyester or rayon suits), 3 piece or 2 (3 piece would be nice, but I understand that's a little formal for white linen, and probably a little stuffy, so I'll probably end up getting 2 piece).

Any suggestions for online? Anybody ever used OnlineSuits? They look... iffy... to me, but their prices are superb, and if their work is good, that's fine.

How about brick & mortar in the DC area (I'm up here visiting for a while)?
 
Actually, do any ATOTites know of a good custom tailor in the DC area, because the more I think of it, the more I think it's silly to buy a suit sight unseen.
