A WOMAN has sparked criticism after slamming “overweight mums” who wear flesh-coloured leggings on the school run.
Jill insisted it should be “illegal” for curvy women to don the nude bottoms, especially when they’re dropping their kids to school.

“I know that there is some really important things going on in the world right now but I really want to address this,” she said in a video on her TikTok page.
“Can we make it illegal for overweight mums doing the school run to wear f**king flesh-colored leggings?”
Jill’s rant was prompted by a woman who she saw wearing a “vest and flesh–coloured leggings” that morning, while she herself went out in a “thermal top and f**king coat”.
“It looks like she’s not f**king wearing anything on bottom,” she continued.

“She almost caused a f**king pile up – people rubbernecking and going, ‘What the f**k?’
“Needs to be illegal, totally illegal!”
“Why why why…. just stop!” Jill captioned her TikTok.
People in the comments section were quick to weigh in, with one writing: “Why is it bothering you? It’s not hurting you.”
“I almost crashed the car because the vans were slamming on (their brakes) so I was almost hurt,” Jill hit back.
As another wrote: “Really?? Is that the most important thing in your life right now?”
However, the majority of people actually agreed with Jill, with one insisting: “Flesh-coloured leggings should be a crime on anyone in my opinion!”
“I don’t think anyone should wear flesh-coloured clothing,” another added.
“I saw a super-fit woman running the other day, she was wearing flesh-coloured leggings and a crop top.
“I nearly crashed my car because I was convinced she was stark naked!”
“Totally agree. Flesh-coloured leggings are absolutely awful – especially the ones that are all puckered around their butts,” a third wrote.
“God it’s vile looking!”
What to wear on the school run
PTA Chairwoman Emma Kent’s School Run Style Tips:
- Avoid the Gym Gear Trap:
- Change out of workout clothes for the afternoon pick-up to avoid looking lazy or unhygienic.
- Leave Pyjamas at Home:
- Never turn up at school in pyjamas as it suggests a lack of effort and can lead to unflattering labels.
- Be Cautious with Bold Fashion Choices:
- Avoid leopard-print leggings and mixing boho pieces with animal print. Stick to styles that suit you best.
- Carry an Emergency Kit:
- Keep a spare top or nice jacket in the car for unexpected spills or stains, and oversized sunglasses to hide tired eyes.
- Embrace Bargains:
- Proudly share thrift finds but avoid second-hand pyjamas or swimsuits without hygiene stickers.
- Don’t Be a Copycat:
- Avoid copying another mum’s style too closely to prevent gossip. Praise the other mum’s taste if it happens accidentally.
- Dress Age-Appropriately:
- Avoid overly revealing outfits and stick to classy, not trashy, looks, especially if over 35.
- Always Wear a Bra:
- Ensure you’re wearing a bra to avoid awkward conversations with teachers and unwanted attention.
- Choose Jeans Carefully:
- Avoid low-slung skinny jeans that create a muffin top. Opt for mom jeans for a flattering and comfortable fit.
- Beware of School Gate Gossips:
- Avoid showing up in scruffy clothing or with wet hair as there are always mums at the gates who will notice.
- Brag About Your Bag:
- Use a stylish yet practical tote bag instead of a bag for life from a supermarket.
- Ditch Crocs and Socks:
- Avoid pairing Crocs with socks. Opt for versatile Chelsea boots for a stylish and comfortable look.
“It’s not nice when you’ve just eaten your breakfast… school run then that,” someone else sighed.
As another commented: “I’m oversized but I would never wear those leggings – hell no.
“Only black leggings and black trousers for me!”
