Please dress me for Dhs graduation

Dh has a graduation coming up. The photos from previous graduations (of both of us - we like studying!) are a picture reminder of my increase in weight over the years.
I am now a size 20 but am a tall (5,9), broad shouldered, big tummy, normal boobed size 20 and most of the gorgeous clothes for my size seem to be for small height large boobed women.
This is his 2nd masters while supporting me through a disectomy and hysterectomy in the last year and working FT so I am very proud of him and want to look well.
We were talking this morning and I said I'd love a whole new outfit from undies to clothes, jewellery and shoes and he said go for it so please help me find something as I'm not even sure what I want or would look well. Thanks!

A new coat? You'll probably be outdoors a lot. What colours do you like? Maybe a lovely bright coat, with a plain dress underneath, or a print dress with the coat's colour as part of the print?

Oh thanks for the replies, I had checked on Sunday and had no replies so wrote off the post so appreciate the replies!
I do like the pink coat (last link on 1 st reply) do you think it would go with the second dress on the 2nd reply?
Yes Remus I do like the idea of a new coat.
Thanks

Yes I think that coat and dress would work
What kind of shoes do you like Op?
Also do you need a new handbag as well?
Oh and jewellery?!
I'd also be tempted to treat my self to a makeover at Bobbi BrownSmile
What a lovely event to be shopping for
