Non-Skimpy Actual 'Armour' list for Females

[Jeir]

you may also want to use the tag system to block out anything labeled as "skimpy"

 

any half decent author will tag their file and you hopefully will no longer need to see it. Unless it is the image section... In which case they are all over the front page.

The problem with that (and the reason why I don't block any tags), is that some mods which aren't skimpy can still be tagged as 'sexy' (the tag is 'Sexy/Skimpy' after all), and thus wont turn up in your searches...even if it's something you're looking for. For example, Keo's Fur Huntress Armour. Not an inch of skin is shown, it's not skin tight, yet still has the sexy/skimpy tag.

Another is the Osare Onepiece dress. It's a summer dress, not at all skimpy, yet is tagged.

Same with the Leatherbound Huntress, and Lustmord, and Nightmare armour, and...well, you get the idea. =/

Without being too picky now - but you usually search from top to bottom in a filter - that means you start your search and THEN apply filters if the result is too big. Thats what tags are meant for - it would be a lot wiser to inform the authors of mods if they are tagged wrongly instead of making a forums list which will not be seen that easily.

 

My argument is a lot about information redundancy - why recreate a list that is already there if one uses tags? Despite that - sexy and skimpy are a lot in the eyes of the individual. Looking at the OP's list an armor with names like 'lolita' in it disqualify for my account.

old "list" but thank you for making one

I agree with tags being mostly wrong (in my opinion)

I think it's because I think different people have different notions of what is sexy and what is not. Even more when you add cultural differences on top of that ...

 

Also between a little sexy (some cleavage shown / nude back )

and overly sexual (niples showing/ whole butt cheeks/sex) there's quite a large gap too

furthermore it depends on context, after all women in bikini at the beach it's not that sexual in my humble european opinion, heck there's the nude beaches too ....

though in skyrim it seems totally out of context and really sexual ... in 90% of the country (remaining % for that specific region above riften)

 

edit: best example http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/17082/? (already in the list before)

tagged as : nudity, NSFW, sexy/skimpy .... cannot access mod without being logged in (adult content)

lol it's none of these xD

zzjay's wardrobe is good if you want more clothing-likes or casual things to wear, with a few good armors thrown in. The outfits are attractive, but not skimpy.

There are a few practical, non-skimpy female armor and clothing mods here on Nexus, but it takes some searching. In addiiton to the ones already listed, I add the ones I have used in my game:

 

All Armor Types:

• Practical Female Armors - Repleaces female versions of many vanilla armors (including Stell Plate) with more practical and less sexualized versions, while fitting the more slender female frame. Some of my female followers with UNP frames wear the Steel Plate armor, and it looks fine (not like they are being swallowed up by bulky armor).
• NorseViking Armor II - A variety of ubiquitous chainmail hauberks in both light and heavy versions. The female armors look different than the male versions, but not in a skimpy way. The included Viking-style helmets have a cartoonish texture compared to the chainmail, so I use vanilla steel helmets, instead.

 

Light Armor:

• Grace Darkling's Ranger Armor. Overpowered stats, but nice looking green armor with brown trim for the outdoorsy woman. Has a nice optional hood/cowl. My female ranger followers won't leave home without it.
• Noldorian Ranger Armor - Standalone - Fashionable slate blue with gold trim retexture of Grace Darkling's Ranger Armor. It's stats are lower than the Grace Darkling armor, but maybe more balanced.

 

Heavy Armor:

• Witcher 2 Style Dawnguard and Standard Heavy Plate. Includes a nice weather/battle worn Gothic Steel Plate Armor set, which may look a bit bulky on a female frame - but it's the ultimate in non-skimpy.
• Knights of the Nine - Heavy plate armor (ported from Obivion). Overpowered stats, but what a way to make an entrance! The female armor does have a "boob" curaiss, but it's all non-skimpy. The bucket hem texture looks a bit cartoonish compared to the rest of the armor set, so I use helmets from the Witcher 2 Helmet Pack, instead.

Clothing:

• Grace Darkling's Ranger Dress - In a variety of colors. Made for vanilla frame, so it can look a bit bulky on a UNP frame.
• Elven Dresses - Classy LOTR style dresses in a variety of colors. Can even make a tavern wench look like a queen....
• Grace Darkling's Attire Pack - I don't have this mod, but it may be worth checking out - the author does great work.

Diamond Armor Crafting is pretty good. Works for both guys and girls.
