Look at your reputation bars and see what is lacking. The game will show you what is limiting your growth.

Yes, clothing and then bathing.

Also, you have some level of starvation. You might have a worker trapped somewhere and unable to reach food. They will die eventually and become unstuck.

Also you have a bit of unburied corpses which might mean that you have too few grave sites or too few workers to move corpses... or maybe you just had a battle and it that is temporary while all the corpses get cleaned up.

Check the reputation tab (column upper left) There you will see all the multipliers that makes your reputation, and which to increase for more growth.

Best to have taverns in all areas of map. Productivity goes way up if workers don't have far too go for food/sleep/bathroom/etc...

yep spreaded out taverns roughly seating 150.

and under "overlord jokers" tip i upped my clothing 5pieces. tipped me over 2200 :).
