Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Amy Dowden is back on the show for 2025 – and fans can’t get enough of this cute bow-print knit she’s been spotted wearing
Strictly Come Dancing 2025 kicked off on Saturday night with the new cast of celebrity contestants and their professional partners revealed, and fans of the show are thrilled to see that pro dancer Amy Dowden is back and competing this year, after having to pull out last year after suffering a foot injury.
Revealing that she’s partnered with The Apprentice star Thomas Skinner, Amy will be back sharing their Strictly experience on social media this autumn, kicking off with a short message on TikTok.
While fans were thrilled that she’s back, lots of them were also especially taken with what she was wearing in the video: a cute cream knitted cardigan embroidered with bows – and we’ve found out exactly where you can buy it too.

“Love the cardigan,” several people commented under her TikTok video, with one also asking where it’s from – and it’s from one of our favourite high street stores.
Amy’s exact knit is the Cream Knitted Bow Cardigan from River Island, where it’s currently trending on the website. Priced at £52, it’s made of cream, chunky-knit acrylic material and features big 3D pink and red knitted bows over it, as well as bow-shaped buttons.
If that wasn’t all cute enough, it also comes in a mini version for girls aged 12 months up to five years, so you can match with your daughter (it also makes a gorgeous gift for any young girl).
Both Amy and the model on the River Island website have paired this item with classic dark blue jeans; If you’re browsing the site then River Island does this stylish pair of wide leg jeans for £46, or else we also love this timeless pair from Mango, and Levi’s 90s Straight Jeans, now £47.
Following on from her battle with breast cancer two years ago, Amy also recently shared one beauty product she’s been using recently to help her to look and feel her best.
In a sponsored Instagram post, Amy shows off impressed hair growth following on from her chemotherapy treatment, with shoulder-length blonde hair that Amy says she’s “very proud to say is all [her] own”. Describing how “thick and full it’s feeling”, Amy credits this to using a particular hair growth serum: UKLASH UKHAIR Hair Growth Serum.
Amy has shared how she uses this serum and how it has “helped boost [her] confidence massively”. Explaining that “it only takes five seconds of my day”, in the clip Amy demonstrates how she applies one or two drops of the serum to her scalp, also using the UKHAIR Scalp Massager, which helps to boost circulation.
