How to put it together

1
Put on the bright orange leggings or pants as your base layer.

Pull on the oversized white hooded sweatshirt.
3
Cut two matching triangles out of stiff orange felt, sew or glue them along the sides to create a hollow beak, and fabric-glue or safety-pin it to the brim of the sweatshirt's hood.
4
Wrap the white feather boa around your neck and shoulders, securing it with safety pins, or slip the white tutu over your waist.
5
Put on your orange shoes, or slip your DIY felt webbed-foot covers over your regular shoes.
6
Pull the hood up over your head so the orange beak sits just above your forehead.

Makeup & hair

Keep makeup minimal with a clean face, or add a playful touch by painting a small orange triangle on the tip of your nose. Keep hair tied back or tucked completely inside the white hood.

Tips

If you are referencing the popular video game goose, carry a small silver bell or a fake red rose in your mouth or hand as a prop.
Keep the hood up for photos to ensure the beak is visible, but feel free to push it back for comfort while eating or drinking.
For outdoor events in cold weather, layer warm thermal underwear beneath your orange leggings.
