Practical Space Exploration Suits for Females.

Trying to find some legitimate space exploration clothing with an enclosed helmet for a female, and noticed that pretty much all the practical gear is made for males, while women get mostly skimp wear.
There is no female equivalent of the Planet Explorer for Gen 2 Males, the retro space suit for Gen 2 males, which aren't bulky but still suggest the form of the figure underneath, but still look like something a real scientist might wear.

A part of the problem is that a moderately realistic sapcesuit would flatten the breasts, but an item that (for example) used a GeoGraft to remove the breast mesh probably wouldn't sell well. That makes it hard to design a matching female version for the practical male sets.
These are somewhat bulky but probably as close as you can get that still show the female form:

It's a space suit, I'm kinda thinking safety over appearance.
The nice thing about Genesis is that you can keep the body neutral or male and then put a feminie head, so that the fit looks better.
Here's an example of Mars Explorer for Genesis with just the head being female.
What?! Vicky can't wear a proper spacesuit because boobs? Nasa begs to differ.
Also Britain's first female astronaut some 20-odd years ago:
Thanks. I'd never considered that.
