Pamela Anderson is back in the spotlight with the arrival of highly-anticipated drama series Pam & Tommy on Disney+ (February 2nd).
Critics have praised Lily James for her portrayal of the star, who gained worldwide fame as lifeguard C.J. Parker on Baywatch, which ran from 1989 and throughout the Nineties.
The new Pam & Tommy eight-part miniseries focuses on Anderson’s relationship with Motley Crue frontman Tommy Lee, whom she married in 1995.

Given the huge resurgence of Nineties and Noughties fashion in recent years, the blonde bombshell’s sexy signature look is all the rage again. Following the release of the trailer, eBay reported a 39% rise in searches for ‘Pam Anderson’, and we expect there’ll be lots more outfit inspiration when the series starts.
Here, we look back at some of Anderson’s best fashion moments…
1. The girl-next-door look
Then 25-year-old Anderson was pictured in this all-American ensemble of a white tee, denim shorts and cowboy boots in 1992.
2. The red swimsuit
The Baywatch star’s most iconic outfit, this high-cut red swimsuit spawned millions of copycats, and eBay reported a 74% spike in searches for ‘red swimming costume’ after the Pam & Tommy trailer went live.
3. The playsuit
Western belts have made a comeback in recent years. Teamed with a skin-tight playsuit and cowboy boots, this is exactly the kind of outfit you could wear to a music festival now.
4. The little white dress
Pictured on the red carpet with Tommy Lee in 1996, Anderson chose a strappy, sequinned white minidress – still the perfect summer party staple.
5. The red carpet gown
This low-cut white wrap dress, as seen on the red carpet in 2001, is giving us sexy Grecian goddess vibes.
6. The cage top and trousers
We could totally imagine this daring crop top and trousers being worn by one of the high-schoolers in hit HBO series Euphoria.
7. The jeans and going-out top
Two decades on from Anderson rocking this look at the MTV Europe Music Awards, bootcut jeans and midriff-baring tops are back in a big way.
8. The three-piece suit
Oversized tailoring is another massive trend right now. Anderson showed us how it’s done back in 2003, when she hosted the British Style Awards with TV presenter Richard Bacon.
9. The short-shorts
Anderson’s style started to evolve in the mid to late-Noughties. This black and white ensemble from the 2007 Cannes Film Festival is a lot more minimal than previous red carpet looks.
10. The gold minidress
In her 40s, the actor struck up a friendship with Vivienne Westwood, and has been dressed by the designer on many occasions. Sitting front row at Westwood’s London Fashion Week show in 2008, she looked incredible in a gold corset dress.
11. The sparkly gown
Anderson has continued to embrace British designers and a more demure style. She chose this chic black off-the-shoulder gown by London-based label 16 Arlington for the Fashion Awards 2017.
