On Selecting Which Outfits to Feature in “Pam & Tommy”

"There were so many iconic looks that I wanted to show," Lennox says. "I felt we had a lot of ground to cover but not enough scenes to showcase the outfits we have in our memories of Pam in the '90s. So, I made sure we incorporated as much as we could even if it wasn't exactly what she wore in that moment." For example, the silver latex dress Pam wears to the "Barb Wire" premiere in episode seven is a replica of the dress Anderson actually wore to her post-wedding party in 1995.

Lennox began the process of narrowing down wardrobe options by compiling photos of Anderson from the late '80s to late '90s, broken down year by year to capture her style progression. She also created a "fantasy inspiration board" flooded with images of Brigitte Bardot, Marilyn Monroe, Laura Dern's character in "Wild at Heart," and work from photographer Helmut Newton to inform her choices of colour, tone, and style. Since little is known about Anderson's at-home style, Lennox had the creative freedom to imagine what the starlet wore behind closed doors and opted for flannel shirts, crop tops, and tracksuits.
