Lily James Just Re-Created Pamela Anderson's Bikini Wedding—and It's Epic
In case you haven't heard, Lily James and Sebastian Stan are currently filming a Hulu series about Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee. Thanks to paparazzi photos, we don't have to wait until the show's release to get a sneak peek into the actors' transformations—and they're pretty impressive.
James looks particularly unrecognizable in new images of her playing Anderson in an iconic scene: her 1995 Cancún beach wedding, in which she wore a white string bikini and a tiny sarong. Oh, and don't forget the fun fact that Anderson and Lee had only met a mere four days earlier. Scroll down to see how James re-created the infamous wedding, complete with a spray tan and a wig, and to revisit the OG version.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
