Happy Easter From the Playboy Bunny

From the official bunny suit to a birthday suit with ears, here are some treats from our archives.

Classics April 3, 2026

Back when Playboy Clubs were the place to be, our iconic Bunnies reigned supreme. With their custom tailored suits featuring the iconic ears and tail, our Bunnies were, of course, the club’s main attraction. When the clubs closed in the ’80s, the spirit of the Bunny lived on in our magazine as many women either donned the suit or the ears to bring a uniquely Playboy vibe to their shoots.

On Easter, we celebrate the other iconic bunny, the big furry one who comes bearing a basket full of dyed eggs and candy. That guy is great, but in our opinion, our bunnies are much cuter. So, we’ve gathered 20 photos to prove it. Some are official Playboy Bunnies, others simply put on some ears to approximate the image. Either way, we hope its them who visit us on Sunday morning.
