Bynes turned heads at her art show in Los Angeles on Saturday, where she showed off the designs she created with fashion designer Austin Babbitt, aka Asspizza.

The 38-year-old actress went braless in a daring black top with a cut-out detail down the middle. The top had metallic butterfly embellishments to maintain some coverage.

She paired the top with slim leather pants and styled her blonde locks in a whimsical wet-look bob.

The event, held in partnership with Babbitt, was a hit and drew big names like singer Noah Cyrus.

According to Daily Mailthe art show, which was held at the PLANTS + SPACES store, sold out, with the details shared via Bynes’ Instagram.

Former actress said her art degree ‘paid off’

As reported by People MagazineBynes’ pop-up event featured a unique blend of art and fashion.

In a post on her Instagram Stories in October, the “She’s the Man” actress, who graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, proudly reflected on her accomplishments.

She said, “My associates (sic) of art degree specializing in product development at FIDM paid off.”

Bynes and her collaborator Babbitt have already unveiled a T-shirt emblazoned with a drawing of a woman on the back and a pair of shorts, available in black, white and grey.

The former actress even shared behind-the-scenes footage of the T-shirts being printed on her Instagram.

Amanda Bynes shares weight loss progress

In early November, Bynes shared her progress on her weight loss journey, revealing that she had shed six pounds through walking and healthier eating habits.

The actress also revealed that she had walked nearly 15,000 steps and burned 481 calories in a day.

Back in March, Bynes opened up about gaining 20 pounds due to depression.

“I feel much better now and have learned to do the opposite when I don’t feel like working out or eating clean,” she said at the time.

Bynes, who currently weighs 162 lbs., expressed his goal to return to 110 lbs. She has been open about her struggles with body image and an eating disorder, as well as her past abuse of Adderall for weight loss, which led to her stepping away from acting in 2010.

Bynes is now focusing on a career as a cosmetologist and is working on getting her manicurist license.

Last December, the “She’s The Man” star told her followers she was done with podcasts after releasing just one episode. According to Bynes, she is more interested in having a consistent job and plans to get her “manicurist license.”

The actress wrote: “The first episode of my podcast did really well… I was actually surprised and of course wanted to continue because friends gradually encouraged me to…”

“After thinking about it, though, I’d rather get my manicurist license and have a consistent job,” she added, per The explosion.

The former child star concluded, saying: “I’m going to follow that path instead. Thank you for following my journey.”

Amanda Bynes reflects on breakup struggles in deleted Instagram post about winning her ex back

Earlier this year, Bynes posted a message on Instagram about going through a breakup.

“Am I the only one trying to win their ex back with every Instagram post?” she asked in a now-deleted Instagram Story on April 22. “Let me know if I’m the only one,” Bynes added.

Although she didn’t specify which ex she was referring to, the “Easy A” alum was most recently linked to Paul Michael, who she was engaged to from 2020 to 2021. They continued their on-and-off relationship until 2022.

The pair met while in rehab and Michael previously revealed how they bonded.

“She’s a good listener and we’re there for each other,” he said in a 2020 interview with E! News. “We have the best time and I love spending every second with her. She is the best thing that ever happened to me.”

While it’s unclear why the couple broke up, reports claimed last year that Bynes’ family felt Michael wasn’t good for the former actress.

A source told Daily Mail that doctors had advised Bynes to “keep her distance” from Michael.

They explained that her loved ones were convinced that the former couple’s split significantly affected Bynes, causing her to have a breakdown in 2022, which led to her being placed in a psychiatric team.
