Are you sure you have the sizes correct? I've never heard of a bike that big. How tall are you? What wheel size are you looking for, 26", 27.5" or 29"?

You need around a 17"-19" (43-48cm) frame depending on the bike.

The wheel size, 27.5in (also called 650b) and 29in (also called 29er) is more about the type of riding and terrain than height. If you are riding less aggressive trails and plan to keep the wheels on the ground most of the time, a 29er is a good option. If more aggressive trails with jumps and drops a common feature then 27.5 may be more suited. 

If you can explain a bit more about the riding you plan, better suggestions can be made.

or about fashion :)  Fatbike anyone? :)

I think for a lot of people a mountain bike is the "go to" style, when in reality a hybrid would be a much better choice. I must admit to being guilty of this myself more than once.
