Pamela Anderson nailed Hollywood glamour in a mustard yellow gown at the screening of A Place To Be during Venice Film Festival on Wednesday.
The actress, 59, debuted a dramatic new pincurl hairstyle in a sweeping golden dress for yet another glamorous appearance in the city.
Pamela showcased her natural beauty and flawless complexion by going make-up free at the Sala Giardino.
She ditched her usual voluminous waves for a new hairdo as she arrived on the red carpet ahead of a joyous evening.
The mother-of-two looked incredible in the strapless gown with dramatic balloon sleeves.
She was joined by Rita Ora‘s husband, director Taika Waititi, 51, who put on an animated display as he posed for photographs in a black tuxedo.
Place To Be is a road-trip story following an elderly woman, Brooke (Ellen Burstyn), and a divorcée, Nelson (Waititi), traveling from Chicago to New York to return a lost racing pigeon.

Pamela stars as Molly, Brooke’s daughter, who is trying to find her footing after her second marriage and worries about her mother.
Earlier in the day, Pamela was seen leaving the ultra-luxury Hotel Excelsior Venice Lido Resort, the historic heart of the festival since 1932.
During the Venice Film Festival, Pamela also received a prestigious award at the amfAR Gala.
Speaking at the event last weekend, the actress recalled the time she was given ’10 years to live’ when she was diagnosed with hepatitis C.
The Baywatch actress contracted the blood-borne illness around 1999 after she shared a tattoo needle with her ex-husband, Tommy Lee.
Pamela said it felt like ‘a death sentence’ after doctors told her it was a terminal diagnosis and she would not live past another decade.
However, she announced in 2015 that she was completely cured of hepatitis C after living with the virus for 16 years.
Pamela admitted she is ‘still haunted by shame and guilt’.
Pamela, who shares sons Brandon, 30, and Dylan, 28, with Tommy, said: ‘It was a death sentence. That’s what my doctor told me – that I probably had around 10 years to live.’
‘I’m sure that coloured and corrupted my decisions. It was not fear of death, but fear of what might happen to my young children. It turned my life inside out,’ Variety reported.

She continued: ‘But my experience of shame and guilt was also an unconscious journey. It stays with me; it haunts me.
‘And just like the sexual abuse that I endured as a child, it felt like it was carved into my forehead: Damaged goods. And I presented myself as such.’
A cure for the infection was discovered in 2011 and by 2015, Pamela was ‘hep C free’, though at a financial cost.
She admitted: ‘It took everything I had in my bank [to pay for treatment].’
Pamela still hasn’t ‘fully recovered’ from the news of her diagnosis but has ‘finally come to terms’ with it and used it to fuel her career resurgence.
The Last Showgirl star said: ‘My truth has come through my work, finding ways to express myself through the arts. It gave me the ammunition I needed, a fertile life to use and play in.
‘I’m not a victim, I’m a victor. I am strong and capable, more now than I could ever dream of … I’m not the damsel in distress, no matter how easy that role is to play.’
