Lily James's Pamela Anderson Transformation Wouldn't Be Complete Without This Swimsuit
You can't have a series about Pamela Anderson without the iconic red Baywatch swimsuit, right? Lily James brought back the familiar one-piece while filming Hulu's Pam and Tommy — the transformation is truly complete. Seeing as the '90s are having a full fashion revival at the moment, it only feels appropriate that this suit gets a second life.
The Baywatch swimsuit is about as recognizable as pop culture fashion items go, with its bold hue and dramatic high-cut. It's just one element in the effort to turn James into Anderson, to play across from Sebastian Stan's Tommy Lee. The series is meant to follow the couple's tumultuous (and highly public) relationship. If the makeup and styling are any indicator, the show is set up to be spot-on. Compare the real-life swimsuit to the show's in the pictures below, and shop similar one-pieces for yourself.
