Also, unfounded on books and really not shown in the movies. The only Elves to be shown to wear any form of leather armor in the movies are the Wood-elves, and it's brown. Ñoldor armor would most likely have been silver and blue, for those were the colors of Gil-galad's realm(Also a Tolkien original). Silver and black is also perfectly reasonable for the Elves of Nargothrond, the House of the Mole in Gondolin, and the defenders of Imladris.
