Pamela Anderson turns heads in daring Gucci dress with open back and high-hip slit
Fresh off her Venice Film Festival run, the "Baywatch" alum wore a thigh-baring gown to New York's Kering Foundation dinner.
Pamela Anderson knows how to make an entrance, and an exit.
The “Last Showgirl” actress, 59, was all smiles at the Kering Foundation Caring For Women Dinner Thursday night in a slinky black Gucci dress ($4,800) with a deceptively demure front.
From the side, a hip-high slit showed a flash of stiletto-clad leg, and the rear view revealed an open back.
The long-sleeve jersey gown made its debut on the Gucci runway for fall 2026, artistic director Demna’s first for the Italian house.
Anderson seemingly took a cue from the show and styled hers with sheer black stockings, glossy pointed pumps and a glittering clutch. She made the look her own with soft platinum blond curls and glowing, barely-there makeup.
The mom of two, whose eldest son, Brandon Thomas Lee, announced his engagement to girlfriend Katarina Demetriades this week, just returned from a whirlwind trip to Italy for the Venice Film Festival .
The LBD is a dark departure from her red carpet looks on the Lido, which included punchy coral Oscar de la Renta, pumpkin orange Calvin Klein Collection and a Carolina Herrera gown in glowing marigold.
She was in town premiering “Place to Be,” a road trip movie co-starring 93-year-old Ellen Burstyn and Taika Waititi.
Thursday’s event, which kicked off New York Fashion Week, also brought out stars like Dakota Johnson, Salma Hayek and Paris Hilton, all, naturally, wearing Kering-owned brands including Gucci, Valentino and Balenciaga. The fifth-annual gala benefits organizations working to end gender-based violence, with past editions raising millions for the cause.
