DB Armor

I play almost exclusively in first person, so I never see anything other than my forearms and hands

...An assassin, if they wear armor at all, should blend in or wear dark colors so as to better conceal oneself in the shadows. I don't think red should even be considered unless you're an assassin that only attacks outdoors in the fall.

It's contextual. At night the Shrouded Armor doesn't stand out at all. I only wore mine when the job allowed me to use the cover of shadows or the night. This is a screenshot of me making my exit off of the Katariah after assassinating you-know-who. As you can see the coloring is hardly conspicuous at night. It's even less so if you use a realistic lighting mod like Climates of Tamriel.
