Princess Estelle looking lovely on her birthday photos released today, February 23, wearing a simple but elegant white dress - a very nice choice!

I love Estelle's dress. It's very pretty. I think the best part is that it has no extra frills of any kind, it speaks for itself.

I wonder if this was Victoria's, it has a vintage look to it imo

I believe both of her dresses (stamp and birthday) were Marie-Chantal dresses. They were both lovely, as is Estelle.

Estelle looks like such a happy child, it wouldn't matter what she was dressed in, she will always look beautiful but I do love the simplicity of her outfit

At one event there were pictures of Prince Christian of Denmark at about age 3 wearing pants that weren't shorts but weren't long pants either. They came to below his knee but above his calf. It seemed like it didn't really fit him. He also had on shoes with no socks. Is it sort of a national item of clothing similar to what the Swedish princesses wear, or the traditional outfits worn by the Norwegian family? I believe the video is on You Tube and it is when they attended Prince Henrik's christening.

This? No, it looks like a normal suit that the pants were too short and were being worn like clam diggers.
Here is the Danish national costume

I can only recall seeing the Danish royals in their Greenlandic costumes

I also loved the dress especially because it was so simple, and preferred her look at the official birthday photos over that at the stamp.
Estelle's dress at the official photos is from Marie Chantal's Spring Summer 2014 collection

I think Estelle wore the dress already in March 2015 at the christening of Désirée Magnuson:

Estelle looked so lovely in her dress for her birthday photos and I adore those Mary Janes with it. I actually prefer this look to her outfit on the stamps, but she still looked nice and sweet then.

Thank you for the information, I too had wondered whether or not Estelle's dress was old.

Estelle looks very cute, as usual. I love the addition of the purse. Such a little lady  .

It's even nicer to know that those clothes are well made and made to last and the royal parents are happy to use them.
