As our children grow up and explore the world around them, we often present them with fairy tales through bedtime stories, films and books. Fairy tales are especially valuable in a child’s early years as they teach good from evil, encourage imagination and reward bravery.
Therefore, it’s no surprise when our little ones want to climb into this fantasy world through dress-up, acting and a little bit of creativity. With so many characters to choose from, you may have your hands full. But it’s useful to keep in mind that fairies are a timeless fairy tale dress-up theme.
It’s easy to see why — fairies are well-known for being magical creatures who are protective, beautiful and are huge practical jokers. While this may already sound like your little one, why not help her to embody the magical fairy theme with the perfect fairy dress. It’s a fantastic birthday party theme that will make her glow.
Here are a few of our favourite fairy tale dresses and accessories to choose from:
1. Butterfly Dress with Sheer Cap Sleeves
Designed with love, this enchanting navy butterfly tea dress with a pretty all gown silhouette is sure to appeal to your little one’s imagination. Whether she has a birthday party or wedding event to attend, this soft tiered gown will ensure she looks like a magical fairy in her finest hour.
Adorned with a seasonal navy blue and gold colour palette, as well as beautiful butterfly patterns, she’ll collect all of the compliments. We especially love the gorgeous sheer cap sleeves — they bring the whole dress together with a magical touch.
2. Jewel Green Sunshine Scrunchie
When it comes to styling your girl’s hair to match the theme, you can’t go wrong with a Tinker Bell inspired hair bun. Held up high, she’ll look cute as a button and it’s practical too.
Add a jewel green sunshine scrunchie to add some glitz. With a luxurious jewel green hue and sunshine-shaped gem design, this is no ordinary scrunchie. This soft black hair elastic grips the hair securely without snagging, so her updo will remain comfortably in place from day-to-night.

3. Red Apple Clutch Bag
There is more than just Tinker Bell to choose from — perhaps your little girl would like to be the Fairy Godmother from Cinderella, Flora, Fauna or Merryweather from Sleeping Beauty, or even the good old-fashioned tooth fairy? If the latter, she’s going to need a bag to collect all of those teeth.
We love this red apple clutch bag as it brings nostalgic Snow White vibes. The apple-shaped bag has a red sparkling colour palette, as well as glistening dark red jewels and gold accents to add a fairy tale polish and includes a detachable gold shoulder chain and single clasp closure.
4. Pearl Bracelet
Fairies also love all things sparkly, which means your girl is going to need a glamorous piece of jewellery — preferably one that is versatile and can be worn time and time again. Hers to treasure, this regal mother of pearl ivory bracelet gives a layered illusion to add some luxury to her fairy outfit.
