Well, I will say I am more focused on material, but if I don't clearly know how it looks, then I don't know how to make other people fight against them.I think the original question is about the material, not the shape.
It would be useful to know a little about the elves. Where do they live, and what types of resources would be available to them? As Dems said, if they had access to iron, they would probably have iron armor.
Iron is very accessible in the dark elf realm. They're diligent in crafting weapons with it, which is why I figured why not armor as well? And they are supernaturally strong, which would make carrying 40+ pounds of extra weight not much of a feat for them. But...I also think it would be too much of an expense to outfit every single soldier like that.
