Bunny Patch Easter Tutu Skirt Review: A Sweet Wink Favorite for Spring

Easter outfits for little girls often walk a fine line between adorable and over-the-top. The Bunny Patch Easter Tutu Skirt from Sweet Wink has been popping up on social feeds and in spring lookbooks, promising a playful yet polished alternative to a traditional dress. But does it live up to the hype?

We put this tutu skirt to the test with real toddlers—running, snacking, and posing for photos. Here’s our honest take on the fit, fabric, and whether it’s worth the splurge for your little bunny.

What Makes the Bunny Patch Easter Tutu Skirt Stand Out?

The first thing you notice is the layered tulle—it’s fluffy without being stiff, which means it holds its shape but doesn’t scratch little legs. The waistband is wide and elastic, making it easy to pull on and off for quick diaper changes or bathroom trips. Unlike some tutus that bunch or twist, this one stays put during active play.

The bunny patch appliqué is the star detail: it’s soft, not plasticky, and sewn securely so it won’t fall off after a few washes. The skirt comes in pastel pink and white, both with a subtle shimmer that catches the light without looking glitter-bombed. For comparison, the Mardi Gras Tutu Skirt uses a similar tulle construction but with bolder colors—perfect if you want a more festive vibe.

• Layered tulle that’s fluffy but not scratchy
• Wide elastic waistband for easy on/off
• Secure bunny patch appliqué that survives the wash

Sizing and Fit: Does It Run True to Size?

We tested sizes 12-18 months and 2T on two different body types. The 12-18 months fit a 20-pound, average-height toddler with room to grow, hitting just above the knee. The 2T was slightly long on a petite two-year-old but still looked cute with a little roll at the waist. If your child is on the taller side, size up for a longer wear.

The elastic waistband is forgiving—it stretched to accommodate a cloth diaper without digging in. However, if your little one has a very slim waist, the skirt may sit lower; a bodysuit underneath (like the Hanukkah Long Sleeve Tutu Bodysuit style, but in a neutral color) helps keep everything in place.

• True to size for average height and weight
• Size up for taller toddlers or longer wear
• Pair with a bodysuit to prevent slipping

Durability and Care: How Does It Hold Up?

We machine-washed the skirt on cold, gentle cycle, and air-dried it. The tulle came out just as fluffy, with no fraying or shedding. The bunny patch remained intact, though we recommend turning the skirt inside out before washing to protect the appliqué. After three washes, the elastic still felt snug and the color didn’t fade.

One tradeoff: the tulle can snag on Velcro or rough surfaces, so avoid pairing it with shoes that have hook-and-loop closures. For Easter egg hunts, a simple cotton tee and sneakers keep the focus on the skirt. The Pink Confetti Cape is another fun layering piece for dress-up play, but skip it if you want a streamlined look.

• Machine washable on gentle cycle—air dry recommended
• Turn inside out to protect the patch
• Avoid Velcro or rough surfaces to prevent snags

Styling Ideas for Easter and Beyond

This skirt isn’t just for Easter Sunday. Pair it with a plain white or pastel top for a spring brunch, or layer it over leggings for a cooler day. For photos, add a simple headband—the Mardi Gras Tulle Bow Baby Headband in a matching pastel shade ties the look together without competing with the bunny patch.

If you’re building an Easter basket, consider adding a matching accessory like the Snow Princess Tutu Skirt for a sister or a Patriotic Fairy Tutu Skirt for a Fourth of July hand-me-down. The Bunny Patch version is versatile enough to wear from March through May, making it a practical addition to a spring wardrobe.

• Pair with a plain top for a balanced look
• Layer with leggings for cooler weather
• Use a matching headband to complete the outfit

The Bunny Patch Easter Tutu Skirt delivers on its promise of a cute, durable, and comfortable Easter outfit option. It’s not the cheapest tutu on the market, but the quality of the tulle and the secure appliqué justify the price for parents who want something that lasts beyond one holiday. If your little one loves twirling and you want a photo-ready look that can handle real play, this skirt is worth the hype.
