For the vanilla game, it doesn't really make sense for armor to be revealing. Maybe light armors could be MODERATELY revealing, but nothing to extensive and heavy armor, not at all, that just doesn't make sense. I mean... as was stated above, its ARMOR so if it leaves your chest bare for cleavage and your thighs and buttocks showing (maybe more extreme than you are asking) its not exactly believable as something that is going to stop arrows and swords now is it? Again, maybe a little less extreme than that would make sense for light armors, but not at all for heavy, and if the light armor was more revealing for women, I think it should be a little more "revealing" for men too, like Greek types of armors with bare legs and arms with an armored skirt were (not saying TES should have armor that looks Greek, but the same level of "revealingness" would be believable.
All of that being said though, the armor could be more form fitting, but not expose skin... the female model for the armor could actually look like it was designed to be worn by a female warrior, and in silhouette be sixy if not exposing skin... that would be good artistry I think.
Some sixy clothes don't seem totally out of the question in a full open world, etc... but it is a cold climate so maybe they really don't make sense for Skyrim.
And again... I assure you there will be no lack or limit on the PC if previous games are even a remote measuring stick...
