The look

Top
White lab coat, buttoned up
Hair
Neat and tidy
Props
Stethoscope worn around the neck

Makeup

Hair: Keep hair tidy, tied back if it is long, like a doctor on rounds.

How to put it together

  1. Put on the white lab coat and button it up.
  2. Drape the stethoscope around your neck.
  3. Tidy your hair and check the coat length.
  4. Add optional glasses, gloves, clipboard or a blue top underneath.

Two variations

  • Teddy Bear Doctor

    Carry a stuffed toy with a paper bandage and give it a checkup.

  • Night Shift Doctor

    Add a sleepy expression, an oversized mug prop and slightly tousled hair.

Safety note

Use a toy stethoscope or a clean one you own. Make sure the coat hem sits above your ankles to avoid trips.
