Mum shunned on school run, at supermarket for being ‘too good looking’

A mum has claimed that she is continuously shunned and vilified by other parents for being “too good looking”.

Bikini and crop top loving mum, 40, shamed for ‘not dressing age’

A mum has claimed that she is continuously shunned and vilified by other parents for being “too good looking”.

Sabine Roll-Cohen said she is on the receiving end of what is known as “hotphobia”, a trend popularised by social media, referring to someone who is victimised because of their good looks, as reported by The Sun.

But the 40-year-old refuses to layer up on the school run to please the judgmental mums.

“I like to wear small shorts, or a low[cut] dress, or a tiny crop top. I like to feel sexy,” the personal shopper said.

“Every woman should look after themselves. I don’t go out much anymore, so the school run is my reason to get dressed. Why not wear a nice outfit?

“The other mums don’t talk to me when I look nice, they just turn their noses up.

“But when I am dressed in my jogging bottoms, they decide to speak to me. It’s strange.”

Ms Roll-Cohen, who is from North London, said she was snubbed at a children’s birthday party when she arrived in a stomach-baring crop top and skinny jeans, but doesn’t believe she was dressing inappropriately.

“I was at this party with my six-year-old son, but I only knew one other mum there,” she explained.

“I was wearing a little floral crop top and some skinny jeans which showed off my perky bum and I thought I looked great.

“But every single mum at the party, apart from my friend, ignored me.

“I asked my friend why no one was talking to me and she said, ‘Maybe you wear the wrong outfits’.

“I think they must be jealous as I do have a good body. I’m a size eight, 5’7, I don’t go to the gym and I don’t have to watch what I eat.

“A lot of these ladies are bigger and less sexy after having children and I think it annoys them that I look so good. If jealousy is an illness, I hope they all get better soon.”

Ms Roll-Cohen also admitted to getting dirty looks while out shopping, thanks to her slinky ensembles.

“One time I wore a satin slip dress with a slit up the leg down [to] the shops,” she said.

“The wind blew the dress up as I was walking down the high street and that got me some bad looks, but I don’t care.

“I’ve worn the same thing on the school run too. The girls in my son’s class always compliment my outfits – they think I look great. Sadly their mums don’t feel the same, but what can I do? I’m not going to change who I am to please them.”

Ms Roll-Cohen loves fashion, but she’s bored of the way the other mums dress and wishes they would all be a bit more daring with their outfits.

“People dress nice where I live, there’s lots of cashmere and classy outfits, but the women don’t tend to be sexy,” she said.

“I love wearing see-through outfits, off-the-shoulder numbers and short skirts. I love fashion and this has always been my style. I’m 40 but I think it’s age appropriate.

“I know I’m not 20 anymore, but I still feel young.”

Thankfully there is one who does appreciate Ms Roll-Cohen’s sexy style: her husband of seven years, Beto.

“My husband loves that I care about the way I look,” she said.

“He thinks I’m gorgeous and I like to look nice for him. He wouldn’t change me for the world, so I’m not going to worry what anyone else thinks of me.”
