What’s the mum “uniform” in your area?

S Yorkshire small town.
Leggings and hoodies.
Puffer coats and skinny jeans.

Too cold for that here.

Where are people still wearing dry robes? That was the biggest flash in the pan I can remember. Utterly awful things

Rab down jacket, jeans, wellies, or leggings, DMs and long gilet. Rural mid-Wales. Edited to add that I wear candy stripe or animal dungarees. They’re always commented on 😂

Stockings and suspenders. Pink cowboy hat.

No bra, neon visor, Barbour wellies and a pair of hot pants.

Just looked up dry robe and I have never seen anyone in that, that's for sure! Would have noticed because I would have wondered if they were going out fishing.

I just realised I haven't noticed! But if my DH had done the school run he surely would have noticed because he's very observant and likes to dress well and also watches how other people dresses. I make sure I'm clean and proper but I tend to think practical: dress in the summer and jeans jumper rest of the time. Nothing that draws attention.

This 😄 they’re not one homogenous group so this is the only way to group them so.

Also how you can tell if someone exercises or works by what they wear at the school gates is quite the skill!

How would she know they don't exercise? Even if they don't, some people just find it comfortable don't they? Not everyone drives everywhere. I walk all over, and wear sports leggings sometimes, if somebody judges me they can f* right off. I'm fit and active.

No longer do school run but walk past school on way to tube station (West London).

I notice puffa jackets, with and without sleeves and leggings. That’s about it but must pay more attention. No-one wears dungarees or anything too kooky or trying to be unique that I’ve noticed.

Definitely dress differently to central London folk, even on a weekend.

I guess I learned what a dry robe is today. My mother would sometimes be in her coat over pyjamas when she dropped me off at school, LOL. In rural Lincolnshire….barbour jackets, jeans, jumpers, sturdy tall leather boots…have occasionally seen riding gear. Farmers’ wives have nice haircuts and manicures.

But on the days you go out looking ropey, you will run into YOUR ENEMY looking glamorous! Guaranteed.

I'm on my way to work so it's always corporate clothes: I am very much in the minority.

I gave in and 100% recommend- I'm so comfy, warm and snuggly 😂😂

came here to write this. Never noticed what anyone is wearing on the school run....as far as I'm aware all different things depending on where the person is going after.

Sweaty Betty, dry robes or long puffas, white socks with adidas sambas or Birkenstock bostons, Botox - Essex

Industrial town in Yorkshire and there's not much of a uniform- it varies from dresses and tights with docs and a winter coat, jeans and sweatshirts or leggings with trainers and short or long puffa coats, wooly hats are just coming out at this time and the occasional mum in office wear.

Essex here.
A lot of gym wear with long puffy coats, quite muted colours.
The low slipper type uggs are everywhere at the moment.

I'm very conflicted with this one, I don't want to be a sheep but this look looks so comfortable especially for winter. I feel myself being drawn to it😄

I’m not a mum but live right next to a school. It’s a total mix between lounge wear (Shein) to Lucy and Yak and the woman I saw just now in jeans and a puffa jacket. My ex NDN friend wore jeans or leggings and one of those Uniqlo/primarni light padded jackets. We have one woman who was referred to as like Amanda from Motherland so seemingly polished and trendy. Then I know a DM or two and honestly they just look like normal in jackets with leggings or jeans, depends if they’ve been working that day as to how smart they are. I’ve even been mistaken for a school mum and I’m normally dressed.

Rural Scotland and lots of Didriksons / big coats / tweed. Landrovers, labrador or other gun dog. £300 boots.

The legs on the shein set as opposed to a better quality will be way too long and the top quite tight, just not fit right..although that could just be me at 5"1 wearing a 2 piece designed for a taller person...😂🙈

Ha! Yes, I was just coming on to say when mine were in primary school 10 years ago in South London it was Converse, skinny jeans, breton top and parka. Which is a look I still occasionally sport 😳

I work full time and I'm a single parent - going to the beach pre work is one of the joys of WFH. Even on these November days there is a good community down there - all year round in fact. Many post school drop off Mums catching a swim before work.

Drop kids at school (mine usually walk now but I do still give a lift occassionally), head to beach, swim, sauna, home in time to start work at 9.30.

Truly bliss.

I've started going to early moring yoga now so my morings are now: yoga/home for coffee & change into swimsuit and dryrobe/swim/sauna, home for work.
Beats lazing around in bed doom scrolling (which I can still do if I dont get up & get going).

I'm happier than I have ever been & these mornings have a lot to do with it.
