Pamela Anderson once again proved that less is more on the red carpet. This past weekend, the actress attended the 2025 BAFTA Film Awards in London, where The Last Showgirl star was one of the evening’s presenters and showed up looking fabulously fresh-faced in an angelic white, floor-length Jacquemus gown. Romantic ruching gave the minimal look dreamy depth and texture, while a trailing train of fabric in the back and matching white pumps with bow detailing at the toe added drama.

The Pandora Global Ambassador accessorized her chic look with a stunning necklace, ring, and earrings from the Danish brand, all in 14k white gold encrusted with lavishly brilliant lab-grown diamonds. The main attraction of Anderson’s ensemble was, without a doubt, the jaw-dropping collar necklace, which was perfectly framed by the gown’s off-the-shoulder neckline.

But this necklace wasn’t just any old piece of bijoux; it has a history attached to it. The custom necklace was a reworked masterpiece designed utilizing Pandora lab-grown diamonds repurposed from the actress' 2024 Met Gala look and recent Golden Globes look. "The Met Gala was a huge moment for me—it was about expression, creativity, and conversation, and finally, being part of that night was so special,” Anderson exclusively tells InStyle of the first time she wore the diamonds. "I remember how my jewelry that night caught the light and how good it felt to wear something that wasn’t just beautiful but purposeful. These diamonds on the necklace I’m wearing tonight are also repurposed from my Golden Globes necklace. Now, seeing it transformed, it feels like those memories live on in a new way—recycled.”

For the BAFTAs, the necklace’s 68 carats worth of lab-grown diamonds were marvelously transformed by Pandora’s creative directors Francesco Terzo and A. Filippo Ficarelli into a cascade of tear-drop shapes hugging the wearer’s clavicles. "We’ve reimagined the Infinite collection in a design that features a radiance of suspended white gold loops, holding our diamonds as fragments of light floating within each Infinite motif,” they continue “It is an explosion of light, a reminder of the light within all of us.”

This thoughtful design approach reflects Anderson and Pandora’s shared values: a love for timeless beauty, innovation in craftsmanship, and a responsibility toward the planet. “There is something beautiful about creating with care and finding new ways to express luxury without leaving a negative impact,” Anderson says of her admiration of the brand's commitment to circular, ethical design. "Pandora’s commitment to this is a testament that we can have diamonds that are still glamorous and are made in a way that’s better for our planet. Our shared values are the reason I treasure our partnership.” By reimagining and restyling pieces she has already worn, Anderson is championing the importance of mindful fashion, proving that luxury and sustainability can go hand in hand.

"This necklace isn’t just stunning—it’s meaningful,” Anderson says. “It’s been reimagined from moments that matter to me, my first attending the Met Gala and my first Golden Globe nomination experience. I am carrying that excitement and beauty from those nights still, and this piece represents that. It feels like a reflection of my own journey—it still has that same sparkle I remember, but now with a new energy—proof that beauty can be timeless and adaptable."
