I'd suggest a perma Eclipse Warshade - should be able to maintain capped resist to everything.
A Tank or Brute will have a higher cap but doubt if you can hit it across the board.

I've got an Electric Armour Tanker with massive resists.
The basic armours, Tough and Tier 3 Resilient Core Alpha Slot give you 87%+ to Smashing/Lethal, well over 90% to Energy, and 50%+ to all other types except Toxic.
I capped myself to 90% S/L with the PvP unique IO that adds +3%, although this was more a vanity thing than practical, just to see those pale blue numbers in my Combat Attributes.
From 22 onwards (basic Powers + SOs) you can be sitting in the high 70s to Smashing/Lethal, and at 90% vs Energy.
Your Toxic resistance will always be a weak point.
Might of the Tanker (the attuned IO set for Tanks) has a proc that adds up to 3 stacks of extra resistance, greta for shoring up your fire/cold/dark resistances.
In I24, set IOs will be getting meaningful resistance bonuses. The ones which currently provide 2% stun protection and other uselss bonuses like that will gain paired resistance bonuses (eg +2% Stun/Smash/Lethal Resistance or +2% Fire/Cold/Hold or whatever, these numbers are guesswork).
This will change the way you can build for resistance a bit, say by slotting Titanium Coating in your resist powers. At the least, you wont need that PVP IO to cap smashing/lethal.
But I still suspect an Electric Armour Tanker will be the way to go.
I paired mine with Martial Arts tog et the defence bonus, and built some layered defence on top of this.

Ahh, my bad. I'm rarely on the forums. Thanks tho, I'll post there AFTER i24 comes out (as it seems IO's may change a bit once that happens).

Of course, that means you are in granite.
With the +resist ato for tankers, and the upcoming changes to resist set bonuses, I am pretty sure a few more tanker sets will be able to cap exotic to their sets resists.
