They could make it out of aluminum like those dick dragons. But yea, Hawkman and hawkgirl always had giant fuckoff maces that look like something out of Diablo or WoW. That looks, like a normal mace. You're already flying around with wings, you can have a giant cartoony mace.

Please tell me those aren't high heeled boots.  Otherwise, it is fine. Basic SHIELDish suit with her Quake gloves.

It kind of bridges the gap between the generic SHIELD suits and what Widow wore in at least Iron Man 2.

Why does that matter though? She's not some new Marvel superhero starring in her own movie. She's just an agent in a spy organization who happens to have powers. Of course she's not going to have some bright, colorful costume with a big Q on it.

 Who could this character be. Why is she wearing generic shield female outfit #15 That AoS outfit is probably the most comics accurate outfit in the MCU

Actually that costume is nearly completely different despite how similar it looks. The comic version is like a hoodie, track pants and white sneakers.

Maybe the goons creating costume threads finally send him into a melt down. And yea, she is primarily seen in a black body suit with the gloves, and variations on that. loving nerds complaining about poo poo that isn't a problem.
