Celebutaunt Nicky Hilton made the decision long ago to focus on her clothing designs and stay out of the limelight. However, after an appearance at the BestOfVegas.com Launch Party on Tuesday night, Nicky seems to be out and about and hitting the Las Vegas clubs like her famous "party girl" sister Paris Hilton. After the party, Nicky Hilton and her entourage headed to Blush for some late night partying. Her clothing line, "Chick," which launched in 2004, has consumed almost all of her time and has become such a success that she recently launched a more upscale line, "Nicholai."
Nicky Hilton was born Nicholai Olivia Hilton in 1983 and is the younger sister of socialite Paris Hilton. She gets her nickname from her grandfather Conrad "Nicky" Hilton who died before Nicholai was even born. Nicky was born into one of the richest families in the world. Her great grandfather, Conrad Hilton Sr. was the founder of the Hilton Hotel chain. In her childhood, Nicky and her family never sat still, moving from house to house and traveling the world in true heiress fashion. Some of the Hilton family homes included a suite in the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in Manhattan. The family also had homes in the Hamptons and in Beverly Hills, California. She attended a private catholic high school in New York and attended fashion school for a short period at both the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and the Parsons School of Design. Shortly after leaving design school, Nicky Hilton started her own clothing line, "Chick." She also began designing handbags for Samantha Thavasa. Nicky also spent some time on the runway, modeling for "Heatherette," with sister Paris, as well as modeling lingerie for "Frederick's of Hollywood." Although Nicky is younger and arguably more succesful as an entrepreneur, her sister, Paris has attracted most of the media's attention with her constant partying, club hopping, and sassy attitude. Down-to-earth Nicky has said publicly that she wanted to stay away from the papparazi as much as possible and the paparazzi, for once, have actually listened and have given Nicky Hilton the space that she asked for. Paris was on her own reality show for several seasons with family friend Nicole Richie and Nicky was also offered a role on the show but turned it down to focus on her professional career. In September of 2007, Nicky released her newest clothing line, "Nicholai," which is aimed at a more mature audience and is also much more expensive!
Nicky gained a little bit of Las Vegas publicity when she married Todd Andrew Meister in a small chapel in Las Vegas. The wedding was annulled less than four months later. She is currently dating David Katzenberg. Sources to believe that Nicky might just love Las Vegas nightclubs as much as sister Paris. She just doesn't love the cameras!
