Get your mini fashionistas’ wardrobes ready for egg hunts, family gatherings and days out

The glorious four-day weekend at Easter is the perfect time to give your little ones’ wardrobes a new-season spin. Whether you’re hosting, seeing family or heading away, embrace a fresh colour palette and uplifting spring styles that are perfect for egg hunts, days out and beyond.

Their first Easter

Newborn first Easter outfits could not be any cuter. From Peter Rabbit knits to chick-printed rompers and sunshine yellow dresses, celebrate their first ever Easter in unforgettable style.

Girls' Easter style

Given that the weather can be changeable, think layers; a jumpsuit or dress over a long-sleeved top is ideal for egg-hunting. For an Easter service or more formal lunch, Angel and Rocket and Heirloom Collection have timeless, high-quality designs.

Boys' Easter style

Pre-teens need outfits practical enough for tearing about in after the inevitable sugar-rush, but stylish enough for your camera roll. A cool jumper teamed with smart chinos and Crocs works well, or add in a shirt and jacket to upgrade to smart-casual.

Sibling coords

Rather than identical "twin" dressing, 2026 is about tonal coordination. That might mean one child wears blue trousers, the other a blue blazer, or dresses that share similar colours. Check out John Lewis Heirloom Collection for inspiration. 

Easter pyjamas

Novelty pyjamas aren’t just for Christmas. Make Easter morning extra special by starting a ritual for new Easter PJs. For little ones there are Peter Rabbit  designs, while tweens might prefer a bunny onesie.

Easter accessories

Hope for sunshine but plan for rain. This is Britain after all. Either way, a hat is a great idea - and don’t forget the essential Easter bag to carry all of those eggs.

Inspiring ideas to keep the kids happy

Keep them busy with a new LEGO build, creative set, or (if the weather is on your side) a garden game - which should buy you 10 minutes before they start asking for chocolate again….

All set for Easter 2026
