Welcome, my friend.
I'm 6'8", so trust me, you have many options for costuming.
Keeping the budget low, take a look at one of the imperial uniforms. I went ANH Warrant Officer for my first costume (I'm one vogue covershoot away from applying for approval!).
A soft uniform like the Warrant Officer is relatively easy to put together (I took my time, and I've gotten everything in 3 months or so. And it's got a minimum of "greeblies" (accessories), the only 'fabrication' I've done was punch the holes in my belt and hat). However, be prepared for how much data you will burn on your phone looking for stuff!!!
Mine's going to be very useful for "wrangling" (watching out for your troopers at events) because you can do it in character, and not (ironically) stand out in the public's photos (although some would say I'd stand out in satellite photos
)
On this kind of uniform, the boots are the hardest part, its the old line of fast, cheap or good, pick two!
Hope that helps.
