Unfortunately, that's not armor, and not practical armor either. It's a hollywood costume with no basis in historical or hypothetical medieval military technology.
As a general rule, if your mail is form-fitting, it means that it lacks the amount of padding necessary to absorb the force of strikes. You'll still get broken bones and shattered ribs, even though you won't get cut.
A good thick gambeson or aketon would be much better than this costume, and would be a lot cheaper to make.
Also, her sides and thighs are exposed while she has rather big and awkwardly-shaped pauldrons. Pauldrons are less important than protecting your sides and upper thighs correctly.
A cut to the femoral artery will kill you even quicker than a stab through the gut.
Here's a more in-depth critique of the armor itself :

Huuum, interesting!
I confess that I just typed "female armor" in my search and found it cool, besides, my goal was more to do some studies.Β
Thanks for sharing the channel too. I'm subscribing now and watch the other videos later.
