Amanda Bynes made a statement at an art show in Los Angeles on Saturday, wearing a bold black top with a cut-out design. The 38-year-old actress chose to go braless, with the top featuring metallic butterfly details for coverage. She paired it with leather pants and styled her yellow hair in a wet-look bob.
The event, a collaboration with fashion designer Austin Babbitt (also known as Asspizza), was held at the PLANTS + SPACES store in LA. It attracted several guests, including Noah Cyrus, and was reportedly a success. Amanda teamed up with Austin to launch clothing she designed herself.
Amanda, who graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM), proudly showcased her skills. The event sold out, according to her Instagram post, and included both clothing and art.
In October, Amanda shared her excitement on Instagram, writing: “My associate’s degree in product development at FIDM paid off.” So far, the collaboration has produced a T-shirt featuring a drawing of a woman on the back and shorts available in black, white, and gray.
Amanda has also been focusing on her health. In early November, she revealed her progress on a weight-loss journey. She shared that she had walked nearly 15,000 steps in one day, burning 481 calories. She credited her routine of walking and eating better for her success so far.
Earlier this year, Amanda opened up about gaining 20 pounds due to depression. She explained she’s now working on healthier habits, weighing 162 pounds but aiming to get back to 110 pounds. Amanda has previously spoken about struggling with an eating disorder and her misuse of Adderall to lose weight.
These challenges contributed to Amanda stepping away from acting in 2010. Mental health issues that surfaced in 2013 led to a nine-year conservatorship under her parents, which ended in 2022.
Amanda is now clean and sober as she focuses on her new career in fashion and design.
