Pamela Anderson has been showcasing one head-turning red carpet look after another at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival.
The 59-year-old opted for an elegant lilac ensemble for the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement Award ceremony on September 7, pairing a chiffon-pleated top with long, floaty sleeves with a figure-hugging maxi skirt.
Instead of coordinating her footwear, Pamela took a walk on the wild side and rocked a pair of black-and-white, pointed-toe leopard-print heels, shunning the typical brown-and-black animal print.
Completing her look, she wore cat-eye sunglasses, an oval lilac clutch, and her platinum blonde hair in soft curls.
The Golden Lion ceremony was held in honor of actress Ellen Burstyn, best known for her work in The Exorcist, Flowers in the Attic, and Requiem for a Dream.

Justin Cooper became one of the most recognised child stars in Hollywood during the 90s after his performance in the blockbuster hit film Liar Liar.
Just eight years old when the 1997 movie was released, Justin's breakout performance saw him star as Max Reede, the son of a divorced lawyer (played by Jim Carrey), and a pathological liar who is cursed to tell the truth for a day.
The immense popularity of the film came with some less-than-desirable effects for the actor, who, now 37, has opened up about his experiences as a child celebrity. He recently shared details of his experience in a rare interview with The Not So Little Rascals podcast, with many shocked to see his appearance decades after first appearing on set as a child.
"That's when I realised it was big after [Liar Liar] came out and, you know, I couldn't really go anywhere in public," he said. At the time, he said he thought fame was "cool", but that "it probably annoyed my family a little bit more."
