I think MrC was just talking about a suit of clothes?
If so, there are rules for that. Shiftweave in the ECS, I believe. It allows you to have a set of clothing which is actually 3 sets.

luminous is no cleric spell its a sanctified spell so every good caster has access to it. If you do t have the book you could still use it as a guideline to create your own spell. my suggestion would be removing the -4 penalty for enemys and the str dmg for you

Well, I feel kinda sleazy and dirty right now, like if I cheated on my wife with a hooker (albeit mayhaps a really busty blonde one)

P.e.a.c.h


Luminous Armor



Abjuration
Level: Sor/Wiz 2
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: 1 hour/level (D)
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)



This spell envelops the target in a protective, shimmering aura of light.
The luminous armor resembles a suit of incandescent full plate*, but it is weightless and does not restrict the target's movement or mobility in any way. (* or other armor type as desired or appropriate to the culture or campaign).



In addition to imparting the benefits of a breastplate (+5 armor bonus to AC), the luminous armor has no maximum Dexterity restriction, no armor check penalty, and no chance for arcane spell failure.



Luminous armor sheds light exactly as if the wearer were under the affects of a faerie fire spell:


Wearers do not benefit from the concealment normally provided by darkness (though a 2nd-level or higher magical darkness effect functions normally), blur, displacement, invisibility, or similar effects. The light is too dim to have any special effect on undead or dark-dwelling creatures vulnerable to light.




Luminous Armor, Greater



Abjuration
Level: Sor/Wiz 4



This spell functions like luminous armor, except that it imparts the benefits of full plate (+8 armor bonus to AC).

I'd say make the armor resemble the type of protection it's based on. So Greater would still resemble full plate, but the regular version would look like a breastplate,
Two... Ah ah ah!
Three.. Ah ah ah!
Four... Ah ah ah!
Six... Ah ah ah!!

The distinction of what it looks like is sorta moot, as the original write-up says it looks like full plate even at breastplate bonus.  But thanks for looking in.

Oh, and something I just noticed: Greater versions of spells are usually 3 levels higher than the original. I agree with making a +5 bonus a 2nd-level spell (since Shield is only a +4), which would put the Greater version at 5th-level.
Two... Ah ah ah!
Three.. Ah ah ah!
Four... Ah ah ah!
Six... Ah ah ah!!

Well the text does say that the armor can look like other equivalent cultural armors, you could say that it looks like a Cuirass, or a full set of lōrīca segmentāta, albeit made out of pure light.

Count: Lesser Globe of Invulnerabilty is 4th
Globe of Invulnerabilty is 6th

Mage Armor is 1st
Greater Mager Armor is 3rd

Prot Evil is 1st
Circle Evil is 3rd



Not to dis ya, but seems the abjurations/conjurations/protections are a bit more forgiving. I didn't write the spells, just stole them.

Lash: um, that text was my own, not the original, I put that in just cuz.  *wink*

You mentioned globes of invulnerability and I had a vision that as some sort of transparent Testudo formation. Just sayin', that might look awesome.
