I'm US size 28-32, depending on style, and 5'10". I was considering a navy blue pants and blazer combination with a dress shirt and bow tie, but I spotted a couple of dresses I liked online.
I'm a week shy of 41 and look like death warmed over in all white, so I'm not wearing a white dress. I'm also slightly obsessed with folklore (and maybe a touch superstitious), so I want to wear blue.
These are the pants and jacket I was considering:
