General suggestion
In most cases you'll be using full Shadowsun, as its damage bonus is more valuable than the others' ASI. If you're grinding the FSC a lot, though, consider using Deadshot.
If you have OCH, get the PMoS. It's just too OP.
If you're after looks here, you came into the wrong game.

FSC, but not Vanaduke
Deadshot's not bad (ever since it was buffed last year), but do be aware that its undead bonus doesn't apply to Vanaduke himself. You might consider Shadowsun instead.

Maybe deadshot
Because deadshot is good for FSC to make alot of Cr ( since its the only way to get cr ), then you can save for crafting others ( for ele and pierce defence ).

Deadshot is eh
Curse resistance isn't really all that great, and the damage bonus is only to one particular family. That means that for every other monster family you're getting a (comparitively) subpar armour with half the offensive bonus of the other three, and a resistance to a rare status whose effects can be pretty much ignored if you've got a spare weapon slot. The universal undead bonus is useful, but only if you're planning on hybridizing (using other weapons than just guns) and fighting nothing but undead/getting a specialist armour for an UFSC run. Deadshot does not stop you from burning to death.
So you could spend 700 CE minimum on purchasing an armour that will only be useful for a rather narrow range of situations, or spend the same amount on an armour that'll be more useful all round against all enemies, as well as in PvP should you ever choose to use it for that. It's not terrible, just... all the other options are more multi-purpose.
Also, I feel obliged to say that if this is your first 5* armour then this is Spiral Knights, not Fashion Knights, and whilst being cool looking gives you extra kudos in some situations it really shouldn't be your first priority.
Personally, Shadowsun makes a better choice: it has all-round damage for handguns, which makes it useful even in PvP and against other enemies than just undead, making it worth over 6 Med damage UVs (one for each family, and a little left over for stuff that's not in families, such as Vanaduke, shankles, wisps and knights). Its poison resistance is also somewhat more useful than Deadshot's curse resistance, and it has the same normal/shadow defence.
What abilities do you want out of them? You also might want to see which statuses you don't do well against so you have armor to defend against them.
Or do just want the armor because it "looks cool"?
