Pamela Anderson<\/a>\u2019s singular image permeated the 1990s zeitgeist thanks to those\u00a0slow-motion runs on the sandy beaches in her iconic red one-piece swimsuit on Baywatch.<\/em><\/a>\u00a0She was immediately hailed as the sex symbol of the decade, and that swimsuit is still a timeless sexy staple today.<\/p>\n

So much so that the actress, model and newly minted author<\/a> has partnered with the L.A.-based swimwear label Frankies Bikinis<\/a> to create her very first swimwear collection, paying homage to her most iconic suits.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been in a bathing suit for most of my life,\u201d Anderson<\/a> said in an official release. \u201cBased on some of my all-time favorites and treasured archives, I created my dream collection – I took everything I loved and put them into these pieces – the high-cut leg, one-pieces with buttons, long ties on the bottoms, cute fabrics and colors, and more.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anderson<\/a> and the founder and creative director of Frankies Bikinis, Francesca Aiello<\/a>\u00a0resurrected Anderson\u2019s unforgettable Baywatch red high-cut scoop-neck one-piece, along with the white string bikini Anderson famously wore in Cancun, Mexico after her wedding to M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce drummer Tommy Lee in 1995. Their goal was\u00a0to \u201crecreate pieces that Pamela once loved and lived in.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aiello grew up with Anderson<\/a> and Lee\u2019s two children, Brandon Thomas, 26, and Dylan Jagger, 25 in the small Malibu beach community of Paradise Cove.<\/p>\n

In a new interview<\/a>, Anderson recalls, \u201cFrankie was making little bathing suits when I was there and putting bathing suits in my mailbox.\u201d<\/p>\n

Making history as the youngest designer to ever showcase her designs at Miami Beach Fashion Week at just 19 years old in 2014, Aiello has become a swimwear icon in her own right. She just\u00a0collaborated with two other legends, Gigi Hadid<\/a> and Sydney Sweeney, <\/a>with their own capsules.<\/p>\n

Anderson announced the collab on\u00a0Instagram <\/a>writing, \u201cIt\u2019s about time – I have been so excited to share this with you. I\u2019m horrible at keeping a secret -Time went so slowly\u2026 But today, after a long year -I can tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n
