Copying is the highest form of flattery, right?
Pamela Anderson, 57, has always been ahead of the curve with her voluminous updos and high-fashion outfits, and now stars are finally catching up.
Plenty of stars have dressed up as the “Baywatch” babe for Halloween, including Beyoncé, who showed off various Anderson-inspired looks last year.
Most recently, Millie Bobby Brown has dipped into Anderson’s literal closet and paid homage to her iconic blond updo hairstyle throughout the press tour for her new Netflix film, “The Electric State.”
“It gives me a little bit of confidence,” the ’90s fashion icon told InStyle of the recent tributes.
She continued, “When I was wearing these clothes, they weren’t fashionable. And they weren’t making headlines, unless they were being made fun of.”
While anyone would love to reach Anderson’s level of legendary in the world of fashion and beauty, the “Barb Wire” actress is extra appreciative as she does not work with a stylist.
“I’m just at my happiest when I’m self-styled,” Anderson said. “I know there’s a time and a place for a stylist,” she added, acknowledging their expertise.
But she continued to explain, “I know what works best on me, and it’s not always what’s in fashion.”
“I mean, I’ve always been kind of a busty girl, too, and I look at, like, Sophia Loren… You had to have everything so snug to your rib cage to be really curvy, or you just go all covered up,” she said, adding that for her 2024 “The Last Showgirl” press tour, “I thought, ‘I just want to be all covered up.’”
Whether she’s covered up in glamorous gowns or going full-on “Baywatch” bombshell, Anderson concurs that if you look good, you feel good.
“It’s been a journey,” she admitted, “but if you’re wearing great clothes, that’s a good first [step] that builds your confidence.”
Meanwhile, she’s also encouraged other A-listers to go makeup-free with her fresh-faced philosophy, continuing to set trends.
