This Kids Lily Bobtail Costume brings Peter Rabbit's brave little friend straight from the Beatrix Potter storybooks to your child's Book Week. The pink ribbed cardigan layer sits over a coral-red dress, with a bunny hood that frames the face with lined ears and embroidered whiskers — instant recognition at any character parade.

The hood features a sculpted grey bunny face with sweet embroidered eyes and nose, pink-lined ears that stand up, and a chin strap to keep it secure during active play. The pink cardigan overlay creates that signature Lily Bobtail layered look with decorative button details down the front, while the fluffy white pompom tail bounces at the back. Soft brushed polyester hood, comfortable poly-cotton dress layers — built for a full day of wearing.

Perfect For

Book Week & Literature Days: A natural pick for Peter Rabbit book parades, Beatrix Potter character days, or any storybook dress-up event where classic tales take center stage.

Easter Events & Spring Festivals: Ideal for Easter egg hunts, kindy spring concerts, or bunny-themed birthday parties — the character connection makes it more than just a generic rabbit costume.

World Book Day & School Parades: Recognisable across generations — teachers and parents both know Lily from the animated series and original Potter illustrations, making it an easy Book Week win.

How to Wear It

Pair with grey tights and black ballet flats to match Lily's look from the show. Let hair fall naturally around the hood — no wig needed. The hood's chin strap keeps everything in place even during playground tag.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart for chest and length measurements. The dress runs true to size with room for layering a long-sleeve top underneath if the classroom is cold. If your child is between sizes, we'd size up for longevity — the elastic gathering at the hood and waist gives flex.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes — the dress slips on over a t-shirt and leggings easily. The hood fits comfortably over most hairstyles without squashing plaits or ponytails.

How do I wash this?

Hand wash cold or gentle machine cycle in a laundry bag, lay flat to dry. The embroidered details and pompom tail hold up well to careful washing — avoid the dryer to keep the hood's shape intact.

Is this suitable for outdoor Easter events?

Absolutely — the knee-length cut and attached hood work brilliantly for egg hunts in the backyard or park. Just add tights for warmth if it's a chilly morning.

Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. Store hood stuffed with tissue to maintain ear shape.
