Pamela Anderson took to Instagram on Friday to share with her excited fans that her 'Rhubarb Balm' from her Sonsie skincare line is back in stock. In the natural picture, the star can be seen wearing a floppy, wide-brimmed hat made from raffia, and a gorgeous white sundress which featured a pilgrim-style collar. With her face free from makeup, the 58-year-old blonde looked in her element as she relaxed in the sunshine.
As a fashion and beauty editor who has been writing about style and makeup for over fifteen years, I was excited to see the star of The Last Showgirl embrace a more gothic fashion ethos. The style is having a moment right now thanks to the new release of Wuthering Heights, starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, which drops in cinemas next week.
What is a pilgrim collar?

Pilgrim collars are normally wide, vintage-style, statement collars that rest on the shoulders and often feature rounded or squared edges. They have made a comeback over the years and are cemented in the 'cottagecore' trend due to their traditional design. Although the collar predates Emily Brontë's novel , which was set in the late 18th century, the romantic aesthetic fits perfectly with the gothic trend the new film showcases.
Lots of designers are embracing this vintage trend with ultra-feminine silhouettes. It's a step away from the oversized, casual look that has been in style for quite some time.

Pamela's beauty look, which was bare-faced as always, is also a nod to the historical era. Makeup was pretty non-existent during Georgian times; women embraced pale skin and used natural resources to highlight their features, such as crushed flower petals and beeswax pomades. As Pamela is a big fan of rosehip oil, we think she'd fit in!

Pamela was known for her signature 90s makeup look when she was in her 30s and 40s. It consisted of vampy, smoky eye makeup and frosted pink lipstick.

However, in 2023, when she appeared at Paris Fashion Week, she decided to go makeup-free, and the rest is history. The mother of two has become a key advocate for natural makeup, inspiring women all over the world to join her revolution and go bare-faced.

In December 2025, she told PEOPLE: "I don't do the 'no makeup makeup'. I do the 'no makeup'."
Speaking about embracing her natural beauty, the actress added, "I think people are starting to look more alike these days. But that has a lot to do with AI, social media, and filters. I just never want to get caught up in that trap. I would want to jump off the crazy train, and just ... Well, I don't know if I've jumped off the crazy train. I still have fun, but I don't want to look like anybody else. I want to look like me," she remarked.
