True vintage has been having a moment on the red carpet this year, and Pamela Anderson is the next to make the considered, sustainable choice look chic.
With awards season in full swing, stars have been reaching for fresh off the runway looks, custom gowns, and archival gems: see Anya Taylor-Joy in the hottest Chloé pantaloons, Elle Fanning’s Prada moments, and Olivia Rodrigo in archive Mugler. Yet Anderson, as seen at the Golden Globes first-time nominee celebration luncheon in Beverly Hills, delved a little deeper, selecting a true vintage piece from The Kit Vintage in Los Angeles. The actor wore a cream, silk a-line dress from the 60s, its buttoned up, rounded collar a demure giveaway of its era. She paired it with black tights and black pointed heels, in keeping with the feminine mod style.
Once again, she went make-up free, wearing her hair in a side parted chignon and a burgundy shade on her nails.

Last month, it was Angelina Jolie who decided no label was no problem for this season’s red carpet circuit. The Maria actor also picked up a gown from the same LA boutique for the 2024 Governors Awards: a gold halter neck dress with an empire waist that fell into a tiered lace off-white skirt. The store’s owner praised true vintage lover Jolie, who had shopped a number of times for special looks without a stylist. What’s been proven by both Jolie and Anderson’s selections is that, sans luxury label, one can find truly unique pieces that offer textures, colors, necklines, and silhouettes that sit outside the typical season’s dressing pattern.
