Pamela Anderson Just Brought Back Her Iconic Red Swimsuit for a Beach Photoshoot
Sound the alarm! Pamela Anderson's back in her red swimsuit from her days in the '90s lifeguard drama Baywatch and the images are even more iconic than any from the original show. On Thursday, the actress announced a collaboration with Instagram's favorite swimsuit brand Frankies Bikinis that not only includes a look-a-like version of Anderson's red one-piece from the show, but also 22 other, equally incredible swimsuits and beach-ready items, all of which are available in sizes XS to XXL.
"I have been in a bathing suit for most of my life," Anderson said in the press release. In collaboration with Frankies Bikinis founder Francesca Aiello—who grew up in Malibu with Anderson's two sons Dylan and Brandon—Anderson was able to create her "dream collection," taking inspiration from her all-time favorite suits, including high-cut styles, one-pieces with buttons, long ties on the bottoms, and more.
"Pamela is truly beautiful inside and out," said Aiello. "She exudes strength, kindness, love for all living things. I have looked up to her for as long as I can remember, and to be able to work on a swimwear line together is an absolute dream come true for me.” To bring it to life, the duo called on stylist Haley Wollens and photographer Brianna Capozzi, resulting in an epic image of Anderson on the beach in the Cayman Islands, posing in her high-cut red maillot just as she did more than two decades ago. See the images below and prepare to shop the collaboration when it goes live on May 4.

Shop red swimwear:
The one shoulder look might not be the best for tan lines but it sure does look good on the beach.
If tan lines are your enemy, dare I suggest this strapless option from J.Crew?
Ruched-fabric swimwear like this one from Bound is beyond comfortable.
Until Pamela's suit for Frankies Bikinis comes out on the 4th, I'll be going with this one.
