On Saturday, Princess Charlotte joined her family at Trooping the Colour, the annual parade celebrating King Charles III’s official birthday.

She rode in the Ascot Landau with her mother and siblings during the carriage procession down The Mall, traveling from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade. Meanwhile, her father, Prince William, joined his uncle, the Duke of Edinburgh, and his aunt, Princess Anne, on horseback in their roles as Colonels.
Following the parade, the Wales family was reunited on the balcony at Buckingham Palace for the traditional RAF fly-past.
For the occasion, the young princess wore an ivory dress with some suggesting it could be a bespoke piece by Alessandra Rich, however this is unconfirmed.

A closer look at the bodice reveals a double-breasted bib front panel adorned with six self-covered buttons and framed by clean vertical pleats. It is topped by a Peter Pan collar delicately edged in white scalloped lace with a small, centered self-fabric bow. Also visible are delicate tonal embroidery details and a scattering of blue dots, which coordinate with the colour of her mother's dress and her brothers' ties.

The best match so far are the Papouelli 'Missi' style, but there isn't a side profile stock photo for me to compare the heel, so I can't say with 100% certainty. Thanks to @GabiK_blogoKate for the suggestion.
The princess wore her hair in a half-up style, neatly secured with a white Jane Taylor Mini Organza Bow Hair Clip.
Mirroring her mother’s jewellery, Princess Charlotte wore a triple-strand pearl bracelet, although the way the strands cross over suggests it may actually be a necklace wrapped three times around her wrist.
