Pamela Anderson shone at the Met Gala on May 5, 2025. She wore a silver gown by Tory Burch, decorated with gems. The dress featured over 35 carats of recycled diamonds. This was the Baywatch star’s second time at the big fashion event. She made it truly unforgettable.
The 2025 Met Gala theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired Anderson’s sculptural gown, which featured long sleeves, a subtle open neckline, and a voluminous floor-grazing bubble skirt. She arrived on the arm of her son, Brandon Thomas Lee, who complemented her glamorous look with a classic black tuxedo and satin bow tie.
Together, the mother-son duo dazzled with repurposed diamond jewelry from Pandora. Anderson wore a 17.45-carat diamond ear cuff and coordinating diamond studs, all redesigned from the stones in her 2024 Met Gala ensemble.Brandon wore a 15.45-carat diamond brooch made from recycled gems.
“Pandora repurposed the diamonds from the Met Gala last year into these new pieces—and even made some for Brandon,” Anderson told InStyle. “It’s a new story, told with the same stones.”
Also to her dazzling attire, Anderson unveiled a dramatic hair transformation. She debuted a chic chin-length blonde bob with full baby bangs, stepping away from her usual flowing locks. Pamela Anderson’s makeup was simple yet radiant. She had dewy skin, rosy blush, and a sun-kissed highlighter. This look was a stylish change from her recent no-makeup red carpet trend.
The 2025 dress code pays homage to Monica Miller’s Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. The evening’s event was co-chaired by Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, Anna Wintour, and LeBron James. The accompanying exhibit highlighted work by legendary designers like Virgil Abloh and Grace Wales Bonner.
Anderson first attended the Met Gala in 2024, making waves in a nude Oscar de la Renta gown with asymmetrical sleeves, a corseted bodice, and a train. She accessorized her look with pink lab-grown diamonds and a feathered hairpiece. This set the stage for her even bolder return in 2025.
This year, she proved that true style isn’t just about glamour—it’s also about storytelling, sustainability, and evolution.
