A look back at the style evolution of Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson: hers is a name synonymous with sex appeal. If you believe that every decade has a blonde bombshell to match, then the nineties and much of the early noughties belonged to Pamela. And while we weren't exactly ones to tack up Baywatch posters on our wall, we cannot glance at a high cut swimsuit — or a lifeguard for that matter — without it conjuring up images of her character, CJ.

She was the blueprint of 90s beach style, with her Brigitte Bardot hair and punchy figure. Denim was worn like a second skin and her red carpet dressing was always understated, with sleek bodycon dresses left to do the talking. Even now, she makes a great case to pull out the tweezers and embrace skinny eyebrows. And with Y2K style making a garish comeback, we're looking to her wardrobe of outlandish hats, baby tees, leather, mini skirts and bustiers just as much as the more laid back silhouettes of the 90s.

Decades since she first burst onto our screens, and Anderson is still very much at the forefront of all things fashionable and cool. Now 58, the actress is a mainstay in the front row of some of the most iconic runway shows and on red carpets. And, in testament to her timeless beauty, she's made a habit of attending these events sans makeup.

2025 will arguably be her biggest year yet, with the release of her film, The Last Showgirl. Anderson stars as a veteran Las Vegas showgirl, whose career comes to an abrupt end after a 30-year run — a role that earned her her first-ever Golden Globe nomination for the work, for Best Actress, no less.

And now, she's following it up with another project, The Naked Gun, which she stars opposite rumoured IRL love interest, Liam Neeson. The film, which is a remake of the late 80s comedy, is slated for release on August 1, and will see Neeson play a bumbling member of the police squad, and Anderson the sister of a victim whose crime he is investigating.

So as we wait eagerly for the release of The Naked Gun, we're looking back at Pamela Anderson's most iconic fashion moments through the decades. See them below.
