Cute Easter Dresses and Outfit Ideas

Spring is finally here, and Easter is the time to bring out those dresses that embody fresh energy and new life. From casual brunch gatherings to formal garden party family events, we have the inspiration you need to put together the perfect outfit for Easter.

Put away your winter coats and break out the shorter sleeves for a celebration of floral patterns, pastel hues, and chic silhouettes. Check out our guide for cute Easter dresses to discover new clothes for your family festivities — and the rest of the spring season!

1. Polished Shirt-Dress

This recommendation is perfect for someone who needs a casual, cute Easter outfit for a day that’s a little more relaxed. Shirt-dresses perfectly balance playful and polished with a structured collar and short hemline. Umgee has some perfect shirt-dresses with looser fits and longer hemlines for a more modest vibe! 

We’d pair this cute Easter dress with a pastel cardigan that matches a pair of strappy sandals or booties. If you want to dress up your shirt-dress a little bit, consider wearing gold jewelry with pearl accents or a belt to draw in your waist. You can also wear a blazer instead of a cardigan for a touch more structure.

2. Floral Prints

A flower print is a classic choice for a cute Easter dress. You can find one in nearly any color combination you want, featuring so many different types of flowers. We recommend exploring Hayden clothing for delicate prints and a subtle approach or Jodifl dresses for bolder colors and abstract designs!

Pair your floral dress with white sneakers to bring in a casual element for your look. Or, if you’re headed to a more formal garden party, you can wear an open-toe, heeled sandal and show off your pedicure! Consider a kimono cardigan to top off your look, playing with mixing and matching patterns for a totally unique style.

3. Pastel Dresses

If florals are the classic spring print, then pastel is the go-to spring color — especially when it comes to Easter. A pale color palette automatically makes it feel like spring, matching you to the new leaves on trees and budding flowers in the bushes. Whether you opt for a puff sleeve, flowy midi dress, or playful romper, make pastel the center of your look.

Pastel always looks best with neutral accessories, so prioritize white, beige, and tan shoes, denim shackets, and delicate jewelry that won’t overpower your cute Easter dress.

4. Tiers, Ruffles, & Bows — Oh My!

If you live for details like tiers, ruffles, and bows, it’s your time to shine! Get a little flouncy with a cute Easter dress that highlights the whimsical, romantic elements of spring. Tiers are a great option for anyone who wants a versatile look, as they’re available in various lengths. Explore multiple tiers with big ruffles to add drama, or explore longer tiers with less pronounced separations for a maxi hemline. Our favorite designer for ruffles and tiers is definitely Polagram with midi and maxi dresses for every occasion.

Even though ruffles and tiers speak volumes, your casual, cute Easter outfit isn’t complete without a few accessories. Since you want to keep the focus on the dress, choose dainty pieces that don’t distract, including nude heels, a small clutch, and chain necklaces.

5. Pretty in White

If you don’t love incorporating a ton of color into your wardrobe, white is a great choice for a cute Easter dress. Bright white is full of energy — just like the spring season. However, keeping your color simple means you should play with details and silhouettes to explore something fresh and upbeat. Look for pieces made with unique materials, like a crochet bodice accent or a dramatic neckline with asymmetrical flair. Fun details, like lace trim and eyelet accents, can also elevate a white dress for more formal events.

Complete your casual, cute Easter outfit with a layer that can keep you warm if the breeze picks up. A stylish sweater with an open knit can add a bit of warmth while enhancing your dress!
