Betty Fans: You Can Bid On Amanda’s Siriano-Designed Blouse

Heads up, Ugly Betty fans! According to ABC, the beautiful black blouse worn by Amanda (Becki Newton) on tonight’s episode is going to be autioned off by the Clothes Off Our Back Foundation. It was designed specifically for Newton by Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, who guest stars on the episode.

OK, so I made fun of it a little (saying it heralded in the return of the poofy blouse), but that was before I knew I could buy it for my wife! As a reminder, it’s what Amanda is wearing in this video:

The blouse will be on aution at www.clothesoffourback.org beginning tonight (Thursday, May 1) and ending Thursday, May 22 (the day of the season finale). I am so going to bid on it. Just to say I did, and because it’s for a good cause.

The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation is a 501c3 organization that hosts charity auctions showcasing today’s hottest celebrity attire. Items are put up for bid to the public with proceeds going to benefit children’s charities. Clothes Off Our Back was founded by actors and philanthropists Jane Kaczmarek and Bradley Whitford, whose efforts, along with their celebrity and designer friends, have helped improve the lives of children across the globe.

No doubt we’ll talk about this more at tonight’s live blog!
