The title says female, but you've drawn a man. Even a lean athletic woman will have hips. The pose is off balance, but since one leg is longer than the other that might be ok. She probably needs a hunch to go with the different leg lengths though.
Probably too many colors in the palette, but the set of values (light to dark) is good.
The costume is a bit... well. Trying to cover up poor anatomy with clothing or armor doesn't work.
Suggestion: Draw out the anatomy first, more completely than you have done on the left. then add clothing. Rework the clothing design for a mix of both practicality and style. Assassin is a bit general, so develop the idea a bit more. A poisoner and a sniper might both be assassins, but they will dress and look differently from one another.
Hope this helps,

- She has a shoulder protector, but an exposed belly and cleavage. The shoulder protector doesn't really protect much.
- A championship wrestling belt? A blue cloth armband?
- Several more belts which look like they will fall down and trip her up. Nor do they seem to support anything.
