 OAFE - Muppets: Rizzo review
Rizzo's been kicking around the Muppetverse for quite a while now, having first appeared as part of Kermit's whisper campaign in The Muppets Take Manhattan.

Rizzo is seen here wearing a fairly standard red and yellow jacket (there's also a variant in blue, but I thought the red looked better) over a white tanktop and so will fit in with the more mundane Muppets.
