Blade Runner 2049 Coco / Lab Technician Costume

Love this plastic lab coat. I'm assuming it's not an off-the-shelf item, so I'm wonder how you'd go about making it (and what it's made of)

It is made from latex, not plastic.
Latex sheeting is getting glued by rubber cement. Not the easiest to work with depending on your level of experience!
I'm not sure if the surface has been treated with silicone lube, by chemical chlorination process or just left as is.
If going the latex route be prepared for many things to look out for when working with, wearing and proper storage to avoid damage, discoloration and deterioration.

I'm not sure what exact sheet color this is, but it's definitively either one of of those three, they can look more or less close, depending on lightening condition and age:

Thickness should be 0.3/0.4 mm or possibly even slightly thinner.

If anyone is going forward with this let me know and I'll see what sheet swatches I have here and how the colors compare in daylight.

Yes. I also have the same thinking that it is made from latex.

There are shots of coco’s back, aren’t there? That might present a clue about whether his lab coat was modified from preexisting clothing. Eg, his coat may have been a transparent smoke-colored raincoat, which was reversed to act like a smock.
