Scarcity of material would absolutely be a huge factor--the biggest probably, dwarfing even the needs of a soldier for functional clothing. The question (for me; I don't know what others are thinking as they fill out the poll) is what balance between these two imperatives a post-apocalyptic would be able to achieve.
My (incredibly uninformed) guess is that female soldiers would be in most cases provided with some type of sports bra-type garment, but it would probably be fairly ill-fitting and not particularly effective.
