Recommendations from a friend: I hope that she's not using Valentine Armouries (http://www.varmouries.com/). It would be a pity to lose them. I recommend them.
If it comes down to a purchase, there's also polyurethane LARP armor, carried by many suppliers (for example, http://www.by-the-sword.com/acatalog/LRP_Armour.htmld). I hope that this proves helpful.
