There is one and only one, potential "off the shelf" solution, in my opinion. Why?

Standards clubs are make for "standard people". Men 5'9 - 6' 1", with reasonably normal arm length and leg length.

Standard women's clubs are made for typically sized women ... 5'3" - 5'7". As a couple of people mentioned, a "static fitting" would use your hand to ground measurement and quite honestly, most everyone could get by with a standard set.

A 5' 10" woman, simply doesn't fit into the standard sizing, weight and shaft flex.

UNLESS you can find a set of men's XXIO clubs. XXIO are intentionally made "lighter", with more flexible shafts. An "Off the Shelf" men's set, would work perfectly fine as a starter set, to determine if you like the game and want to continue.

Standard women's will be too short and too flexible.

Standard men's will be the right length, but too heavy and probably too stiff.
