Where I can I find sharp clothes for a quasi-mod butch?

Here is another question about finding clothes. Since I had a kid, my style has slacked off because of the extra weight I gained. I bought a couple suits from Wild Fang a year ago, but I need more pants, shirts, blazers, and my old standby of Wild Fang is going... decidedly more bright, colorful, and kinda femme - which is great for people who like that sort of thing, but my style is more classic mod.
So help me! I need to find shirts, pants, and blazers that are decidedly masculine and classic, but also will fit a pear shaped woman. I have been mostly buying men's clothing from Old Navy and the Gap (34w30l pants, small shirts) but their stuff is meh. It does not bring me joy.
I stick to a dark palette of greys and black with some pops of color, but it should all be interchangeable. I typically wear black or cherry Docs, though I also have some tan desert boots I would like to get back into rotation. I also have some Chelsea boots I'd like to wear again. I am also vegan - so no wool. Extra points if it's good for packing and biking to work in.
The impetus for this question at this time is that I have an event in June that I need to go on stage at a conference and I want to look really sharp and feel confident. Not just "ugh, this is what fits right now".
