Janette looked mesmerising in a striking ruffled dress from Trang Hung, complete with an asymmetrical neckline, daring cut-out bodice and thigh-split skirt that cascaded into an impressive train of tulle. The Strictly: It Takes Two presenter rocked a pair of 'barely there' heels, leaving all the attention on her electric pink ensemble.

The 38-year-old dancer wore her brunette hair in an elegant up-do, adding a pop of colour with metallic green eyeshadow and fluttery lashes to highlight her ageless beauty glow.

Janette added a pair of statement pearl drop earrings from Laurence Coste to complete her look - and fans couldn't get enough of her flamingo pink look.

Clearly having the time of her life, Janette took to the dancefloor at the BAFTAs afterparty with a glass of Champagne as her co-star Sara filmed.

Fellow Strictly professionals and contestants rushed to the comments to share their love for Janette's striking attire, including Maisie Smith who wrote: "THIS DRESS". Clara Amfo was left speechless, simply commenting a string of pink hearts beneath Janette's post.
