Need a new Easter dress? These vintage-inspired Easter dresses are perfect for spring as well. You can even skip buying a new dress and rent a vintage-inspired dress instead!

As a kid, I always got a new dress before Easter. It was always fun to pick out a new, often frilly, dress for Easter. Spring colors are my favorites, so it’s a great time for me to get clothes in general.

It’s still fun to get a new Easter dress. My favorite Easter dresses are vintage-inspired. I love the full skirts, they are flattering and let’s be honest, even as an adult, it’s fun to twirl in them.

Spring dresses are starting to show up, and it’s a good time to start looking. Easter will be here before we know it. These are some of my favorite vintage-inspired dresses available right now.

This cute bunny dress is another fun option from Lady V and it also has pockets.

Rent a Vintage-Inspired Dress

If you don’t want to buy a new dress right now, you can still get a great vintage-inspired dress to wear for Easter by renting one!

Clothing rental is becoming very popular and is a sustainable and affordable way to get new clothes all the time without a lot of shopping or spending.

You can even rent vintage-inspired dresses! My favorite place to rent clothes from is Gwynnie Bee because they have brands like ModCloth, Unique Vintage, and eShakti. 

And if you like something, you can buy it for really cheap. Just want to wear it once or twice, then you can, and just send it back, and they will send you more clothes. 

If you want to know more about clothing rental, check out my clothing rental guide, and you can read my full review of Gwynnie Bee for more information as well. 

Sharing is caring!

    Ooh, they’re so lovely! I usually get a new dress for Easter as well, but this year I am hoping to find a nice pop of color or floral pattern to brighten my wardrobe of past selections. And perhaps a nice floppy hat to go with it, because a girl can never have too many floppy hats.. 🙂
