Anne Ventzel:
TONE TONE is a soft and loose-fitting sweater with a refined structure consisting of right and left stitches, including braid patterns. The sweater is knitted from top to bottom and therefore does not have to be sewn together. First is the back. After that, stitches are picked up along the shoulders for right and left front, which are placed on a needle at the bottom of the neckline. The front and rear are closed under the arm cutouts to form a round so that the body is knitted in rounds over all the stitches. Subsequently, stitches are picked up around the arm cutouts for the sleeves, which are made in rounds downwards.

The specified length measure applies when the sweater is measured lying flat. Please note that the elastic structure ensures that the sweater looks a little longer when worn.
It is quite individual how much freedom of movement you want to achieve on your knitted piece. Take some of your favorite sweaters. So the decision regarding the appropriate size may be easier for you.
As a starting point, I recommend a range of movement (positive ease) of 20-30 cm for this type of sweater.
I myself have chosen a larger size for my sweater, so that my TONE TONE sweater has a range of movement of 40 cm.
