Strictly Come Dancing might be over for now, but that doesn't mean we're not still keeping up with the stars' fabulous fashion looks, exciting updates and Strictly tour throwbacks - particularly from winners Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice

Looking fabulous as ever in a photo posted on Sunday, 27-year-old Rose rocked an elegant turtleneck top in burnt orange for a girls' night with fellow Strictly stars Tilly Ramsay and Maisie Smith. The EastEnders actress teamed her striking knitwear with high-waisted black trousers and white trainers, amping up her look with double gold hoop earrings.

The brunette beauty wore her long hair teased into a sleek top knot, adding bronze eyeshadow, fluttery lashes and lots of contour.

The post pictured the three women posing for playful photos in what looked like a bathroom mirror - we expect the dancing stars were capturing a backstage moment from the tour!

"I do be missing my dancing chums [heart emoji]," Maisie captioned the photo, to which Rose quickly replied: "I love this and you both very much [heart eye emoji]."

Rose then shared the photo on her Instagram Stories, captioning the snap "my Aperol girls."

It's not the first time Rose has stunned in the striking knit, having previously worn the colourful piece for a dinner date with dance partner Giovanni at Italian restaurant, Gola.

Taking to Instagram earlier this year to mark the reunion, Giovanni shared a hilarious video of himself in the company of the Eastenders actress. In their usual comic style, the duo stared at each other with blank faces as the camera zoomed out to reveal their table for two.

A second video pictured Rose rejoicing as she prepared to tuck into her plate of food, wearing the striking orange turtleneck jumper. What a look!

Marking the end of the Strictly tour, Rose left a heartwarming message on her Instagram. It read: "Six months ago, I didn't have a clue what I signed up for and to be honest I was terrified. Now, I know for sure that it was the best decision I have ever made, what a crazy ride and life-changing experience it has been."

Dedicating her experience to Giovanni, Rose continued: "@giovannipernice, I am so grateful that you were part of my Strictly journey. Thank you for telling my story and showing everyone who I am. Our friendship is so special and lasting for sure."
