Get DOS Navigator from http://www.dnosp.ru/

It has several color themes (palettes).  Make sure to download them -
they are in a separate archive.

DOS Navigator runs in dosemu (tested with dosemu 1.1.4).

To give you an idea, here's a screenshot of the default palette:

Good luck emulating it in mc.  I'm afraid that it won't be easy to emulate
the default theme, because the background is gray (color 8), which is a
brighter version of black (color 0).  Bright backgrounds are not supported
by mc (because most terminals didn't support them in the past), so you may
need to change the mc code.  Again, experimenting with a little program
(or even a script) would be easier.
