Don't believe me? Take a look at Arwa or Lady Isolla in combat. And yes, in Mount & Blade, women and men are physically equal.
In a world where women can don armor and fight in battle, and are physically on par with men, it's not outrageous to think that a woman with the financial means might add some cosmetic embellishment to her armor provided it doesn't detract from its protective qualities.
I'm not looking for 'figure-hugging' or 'revealing' armor, here, but somehow I knew someone would interpret my request as such because people prefer to just make assumptions rather than thinking logically.
