Male Shep's armor is no less form-fitting, but I get your point about there not being a point to Fem Shep's breast plate being sculpted to mimic breasts.
I have no issue with the so-called boob plate in a fantasy setting, since stylized stuff like the muscle cuirass was actually a thing...but with military armor in the 23rd Century you'd expect it to be a bit more utilitarian.
Something similar to this as light armor could be cool:
The only details I'd change would be to make the chest armor look to be made of a sturdier material, and to extend it down to cover the abdomen.

If it's not supposed to double as a space suit as well - sure, looks cool.
But an armor capable of EVA in space should be sturdier and bulkier than this. It's barely more than armored clothing.
Ohh, geeze Arti you've got me searching and I keep finding stuff I like!

Well, it certainly looks better and more logical than Miranda's catsuit, it admittedly looks good, and is passable as a light combat armor,
even if the design is not necessarily completely practical.
The closest thing Mass Effect had for this was the Hahne-Kedar armor from ME3:
I liked how it was veyr light looking with a lot of cloth. If I recall correctly they said in Andromeda you might use your armor over more "casual" clothes. So lighter amor like this might be more common.

Space suits capable of EVA in the future will probably be light. The technology isn't quite there yet, but it should be by the 23rd Century.
Skintight, Lightweight Spacesuit a Perfect Fit for Mars?

No one shots you on Mars!
I'm fine with skin-tight armor as long as it is unisex, covers whole body and doesn't go into buttcrack - like vault suit in F4.
I agree, if they say that technology went that far that light materials provide enough defence I'm all in - especially after reapers were defeated, we could adapt their technology.
But make it lore friendly.
EDIT:
was looking for light scifi armor without boobplate,
not dissapointed
oh, and I will say it once again: I want robotic body parts like leg or hand
don't open if you're bothered by nipples:
back to boobplates:
They are impractical due to fact that not everyone are same size and our size might change due to growing up / losing weight / gaining weight - they would need to make special armor for every female and female soldiers would need to change armors frequently. Also, such curves are weak part of structure and might easily be more of danger than actual enemy.
I like idea of casual clothing mixed with armor that was mentioned before.

I'm kinda researching what's people's idea on future fashion and that's what I've got:
it will be skin tights (which I understand due to being far more practical - it's hard to get stuck on door handle etc) but not revealing or revealing in parts of body that we don't care about right now like hips or shoulders only (our old fashion for cleavages changed to showing naked bellies to it's normal to evolve even further) and it's balanced by oversized parts that you can easily remove like jacket so posture looks fine. Pattern can be a bit extraordinary but they focus on neutral colours.
examples:
So far i'm glad that none of the armor suits, and pieces in the trilogy were fugly like Fifth Element's police uniforms. Hope they keep this up.

lookee the tatas
Boobies is a better nickname...
But I agree. Sex appeal is much more effective when it's not over-the-top, and in combat sex appeal should not be a consideration at all.

This is why I like this armour in ME3 - it could be any gender really, and just looks solid:
Also this in ME2 did quite a good job:
I thought the armour in ME1 was good for a space suit:
But lacked a little credibility when it came to combat, it just did not appear solid enough.
Notable exception to the mercenary armour. the banding on the textures giving the appearance of plates sells it to me.
I said it once and I'll repeat myself until they finally add it... if they add boob plate they should also add the peen capsule, since you know, if it sticks out it needs to be covered with something that fits around it
Corn flakes.

You can have any color you want, as long as its black!
I always choose black. I also make the color as dull as possible.
Granted, but they didn't give the impression say that shep could be hit by falling masonry and not be hurt - there was nothing solid there.Though I do prefer the heavier armors in 2&3, I bought into the idea that the technology was at a level where thin materials could offer adequate protection. My only real issue with the ME1 armors were the wedgies - other than that, they looked very comfortable and utilitarian.

I mean, unless we're getting a male companion who gets horny during fights, I don't see the point.
