From that angle with those colors, she looks like a female Santa with... presents... under her jacket.
...I forgot what experience means.
Maybe a giant bee stung her. On the chest. Repeatedly.

Yeah, the Labcoat is not very slimming...
Most of the jackets have this problem. Even older ones like Racer. Perhaps everything Jay owns is made out of fabric three inches thick?.

The Science Jacket is rather bulky, especially on female models. It uses about the same geometry as the newer jackets introduced with Day Jobs. It's a great-looking jacket, but can make a slender character look stuffed. Or pregnant.
This is Rebecca, The Iron Rose, my MA/Regen scrapper on Victory, in one of her usual costumes and wearing the new jacket. She is intended to be something of a 'fertility figure', so is relatively curvaceous.
However, note how much 'bulk' the jacket adds to her bust and waistline.
From left to right, I've placed her in a pre-Science Booster costume slot with build sliders visible, the new Scientist Jacket, and then for the sake of reductio ad absurdium, with her chest slider all the way out.
The jacket could be a lot more form fitting, clipping be damned.
