Unicorn and Rainbow Print Bodice with Bold Striped Rainbow Skirt · Available in Blue and Pink · Ages 2 to 7 Years
Not all unicorn dresses are the same. This one is built for actual wear: a soft cotton-blend jersey that breathes in warm weather, a pull-on design with no fiddly fastenings, and a construction that washes easily and holds its colour. The unicorn and rainbow print on the front bodice is vivid and detailed, covering most of the chest with a large character image, rainbow arc and scattered hearts. The skirt is where the dress makes its biggest statement: bold horizontal rainbow stripes in blue, yellow, cream, red, hot pink, white and purple run from waist to hem in a pattern that is impossible to miss.
Available in sky blue and pink, sized from age 2 to 7, and priced at £16.99, this is a dress that parents buy as a comfortable everyday option and children choose to wear as often as possible. Those two things rarely align as well as they do here.
Key Features at a Glance
About the Dress
The construction of this dress is straightforward in the best possible way. The bodice is a single piece of jersey in the background colour (sky blue or pink), with the unicorn and rainbow print applied across the front. The print is large and covers most of the chest, featuring a white unicorn character with a colourful mane, a vibrant rainbow arc sweeping behind it and small heart details scattered across the image. The overall print quality is vivid and clean with good colour saturation.
The back of the bodice is plain jersey in the background colour with no print and no fastening. The clean back design is visible in the product images and is a deliberate, practical choice: it means the dress can be pulled on and off over the head quickly, which is a genuine practical advantage for parents of toddlers.
The skirt is gathered at the waistband and falls to knee length in a series of bold, horizontal stripes. Looking at the close-up fabric image, the stripes are clearly defined and the fabric has a soft, slightly brushed quality that sits gently against the skin. The stretch of the cotton-polyester blend means the skirt moves with the child rather than restricting her. It is not stiff or scratchy, and the rainbow print does not crack or peel after washing when hand-washed as recommended.
Why This Dress Works for Everyday Wear
The distinction between a party dress and an everyday dress matters to parents. A party dress requires careful storage, gentle handling and anxiety whenever a child reaches for a piece of cake. An everyday dress that looks fun and colourful does not require any of that. This dress sits firmly in the everyday camp: cotton-blend jersey that is breathable and durable, a simple pull-on design, and a silhouette that allows unrestricted movement. The rainbow skirt is bold enough to satisfy the most enthusiastic unicorn fan while the dress itself is practical enough to wash easily and wear repeatedly without losing its appeal. For more on the enduring popularity of unicorn clothing with young girls, see our article on why girls love unicorn outfits.
Available in Two Colours
A fresh, bright sky blue bodice with the unicorn print on the front. The blue background makes the colours in the unicorn print and the rainbow skirt pop strongly against it. A popular choice for girls who prefer blue to pink and for those who want the dress to stand out against a party or outdoor backdrop. The blue version photographs particularly well in natural daylight.
A vibrant hot pink or rose-pink bodice with the same unicorn print. The pink version gives the dress a warmer, more overtly feminine quality and suits children who gravitate naturally toward pink in their wardrobe choices. Both versions have the same bold rainbow stripe skirt, which coordinates equally well with both background colours.
What Is This Dress Suitable For?
The cotton-blend construction and easy pull-on design make this dress genuinely suitable for everyday wear. Unlike a tulle or sequin unicorn dress that requires careful handling, this one can be worn to the park, a playdate or nursery without any concern. It washes easily and the colours hold well when hand-washed as recommended.
For birthday parties and unicorn-themed celebrations, the bold rainbow skirt and vivid unicorn print give the dress enough visual impact without needing any additional accessories. Add a unicorn horn headband or one of our unicorn sequin bow headbands and the birthday outfit is complete. For World Book Day, the dress reads immediately as a unicorn character costume with no additional elements needed.

Size Guide
Please measure your child and compare to the chart below rather than ordering by age alone. Children of the same age vary significantly in size. If measurements fall between two sizes, go up. Allow a plus or minus 3 cm margin for manual measurement. For guidance on measuring children, see our article on how to take measurements for children’s clothes. For general sizing help, see our girls clothing size guide. Not sure? Contact us and we will help.

All measurements are in centimetres. 1 cm = 0.39 inch. Always measure your child directly rather than comparing to another item of clothing. Dress length is measured from the top of the neckline to the hem. Allow a plus or minus 3 cm margin for manual measurement. The cotton-blend jersey has a gentle stretch which gives a little additional flexibility in the fit. Colours may appear slightly different in person compared to screen images depending on your display settings.
Caring for the Dress
Hand washing in cool water is recommended to preserve the print quality and rainbow stripe colours. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Wash inside out to protect the unicorn print on the front. Reshape while damp and allow to air dry flat or hanging. The cotton-blend fabric can be lightly ironed on a cool setting if needed. For general guidance on washing children’s clothing, see our guide on how to care for kids’ dresses and our article on what you need to know about cotton.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this dress suitable for everyday wear or just parties?
Both. The cotton-blend jersey, easy pull-on design and relaxed fit make it practical for everyday wear including nursery, playdates and days out. The unicorn print and rainbow skirt also give it enough visual impact for birthday parties and celebrations.
What colours does the dress come in?
The dress is available in sky blue and pink. Both versions have the same bold rainbow stripe skirt and the same unicorn character print on the front bodice. The background colour of the bodice is the main difference between the two.
Is this dress suitable for World Book Day?
Yes. The large unicorn print and rainbow skirt create an immediately recognisable unicorn character costume. A unicorn horn headband completes the look further if desired, with no face paint or additional props needed.
What is the skirt made from and will the colours fade?
The skirt is made from the same cotton and polyester blend jersey as the bodice. The rainbow stripe colours hold well when hand-washed in cool water as recommended. Washing inside out and avoiding bleach will preserve both the print and the stripe colours.
Can this dress be worn in autumn and winter?
The short sleeves make it best suited to spring and summer. For cooler days, a plain cardigan or light jacket over the top extends the season without covering the rainbow skirt.
What size should I order?
Please measure your child and compare to the size chart on this page rather than ordering by age alone. If measurements fall between two sizes, go up. The cotton-blend jersey has a gentle stretch which gives a little extra flexibility. Still unsure? Contact us and we will help.
