Its actually what happens irl. After the shirt, gambeson etc the boons just don't show anymore. Then when in plste if you have breadt forms on the plate it'll just redirect blows to vital areas not to mention will be compromised shape leading to a higher failure right on top of being much more expensive to make.
Then you have modern armor. Soft armor there might be a bump. I'm not very educated on modern armor but its still the same. If using a plate career its a thick vest with metal plates inserted.
I take it your one of those that think full plate should be heavy as hell? Well happy to tell you thats a Hollywood myth. Due to the way plate is attached to the body you barley even notice ot and since the weight is spread through your entire body and us made if interlinking parts mobility is quite high. You can do cartwheels and everything no problem. An entire suit is roughly 70lbs if I recall right. The difference from modern soldiers and ancient ones is ancient ones had that weight distributed evenly while modern wear it entirely on the torso.
