Amanda Bynes, 40, shows off her 30-pound weight loss in a sheer miniskirt after reacting to Hayden Panettiere's death

Amanda Bynes put her edgy fashion style on full display during a solo stroll in Los Angeles.

The former What A Girl Wants star, 40, was spotted in a sheer gray miniskirt which clearly outlined her bright green underwear underneath.

Bynes, who recently purchased a $160,000 Range Rover, paired the revealing garment with a loose white button-down blousenavy blue crew socks and pink sneakers.

She wore her usual heavily inked black eyebrows and a neutral-toned lip color along with green-hued nails.

Bynes’ boyfriend, Zachary Khan, 40, was nowhere to be seen, and she seemed to be in her own world, walking her toned legs down the sidewalk and talking on her cell phone as she headed to the neighborhood Starbucks for her favorite java.

The outing comes in the wake of Bynes’ emotional response to the death of fellow child star Hayden Panettiere last month.

Panettiere, who was 36, was found dead on August 16 of a suspected overdose at an Airbnb in Greenville, South Carolina, where she had traveled with her short-term boyfriend Brian Hickerson, a native of the state.

Hickerson was at the scene with his brother Zachary when she was pronounced dead, according to a heavily redacted police report, and her autopsy found “no signs of trauma” that “would have contributed to death.”

The relationship was volatile almost from the start in 2018, with the actor arrested multiple times for domestic violence against the actress, who herself had been dealing with alcohol and opioid addiction and postpartum depression, leading to rehab stays in 2015, 2016 and again in 2020.

Panettiere’s sudden death came as a shock to fans, family and friends in the entertainment industry, including Bynes.

Bynes shared a short tribute to Panettiere on LinkedIn on August 17, writing: “Life can hit you hard and fast. What a terrible situation.’

Her post was accompanied by screenshots from a previous interview in which Panettiere had discussed the pressure and unrealistic expectations that come with growing up in the Hollywood spotlight.

When a commenter reminded her to “please be kind,” Bynes responded, “I just said… glass houses.”

On August 11, Bynes’ former All That co-star Christy Knowings died at the age of 46.

According to a death certificate obtained by People.

A relative told me TMZ that Christy had been hospitalized four days earlier after an asthma attack and subsequently taken off life support.

Bynes, meanwhile, left the entertainment industry more than a decade ago to deal with mental health and substance abuse issues that had become public.

Her parents were granted a conservatorship in 2013.

She then enrolled at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and received an associate degree in 2019.

Bynes officially filed a petition to end her conservatorship in February 2022, and a judge formally approved the petition and ended the nine-year conservatorship a month later.

These days, Bynes, who has lost more than 30 pounds with Ozempic, continues to focus on her health, hobbies and sobriety. She has been in a relationship with 40-year-old businessman Zachary Khan since September 2025.

In April, she made a musical comeback and released Girlfriend, her first new song in years, on streaming platforms.

“My inspiration was a lot of EDM, but also rap,” she told E! News.

Bynes collaborated with rapper Fenix ​​Flexin on the song and signed to the Create Music Group label, which has collaborated with the likes of Jason Derulo and Deadmau5.

A year ago, Bynes also joined OnlyFans to connect with her fans.

She told her Instagram followers at the time: “Disclaimer: I only do fans to chat with my fans via DMs. I will not post any filthy content. Excited to join in. (sic)’
