The armor model when worn on players/entities cannot be remodeled in vanilla Java edition, only retextured. Pumpkins and other items set on a player's head can be remodeled for custom hats, but won't display if set on feet/legs/torso.
(Any item can be put on the players head via the /item replace command (aka /replaceitem before 1.18), or ofc via mod or plugin methods).
Furthermore, with this pack you can give a large set of specific leather armor colors a unique texture without interfering with the colors available in a normal survival situation: https://github.com/Ancientkingg/fancyPants
With Optifine it is possible to add texture variants on any armor pieces depending on the name, damage and other nbt, but remodelling is also not possible with it.

As Dhruv said, only helmets.
There is NO way to change the model of actual armor pieces nor is there a way to display models in armor slots that aren't the helmet slot without mods.
... well, besides hardcoding the shape of the custom armor in some kind of shader, but that's hella complicated

as you said, carved pumpkin or a plugin to put some other item in the helmet slot
sage sierra
so what is my best bet to making a helmet then
or use geckolib and make a mod . geckolib reduces 50% of work , but still modding is pretty tough for beginners
