95845__bettys_lRemember that year that free-paper Metro hired all those Anna Wintour clones to slink around Fashion Week and scare the bejeezus out of everyone? Well, ABC remembered that clever gambit and rounded up a dozen or so cuties, bespectacled and beponchoed them, and let them loose on the crowds at Bryant Park to promote Ugly Betty, their soapy new telenovela adaptation that premieres Sept. 28. When they cornered Vogue’s Andre Leon Talley outside this year’s tents, an image was born that begged for the Beat This Caption treatment. So here we go…

Beat this caption:
