Nicholai Olivia "Nicky" Hilton (born October 5, 1983) is an American fashion model, socialite, celebutante, entrepreneur, and fashion designer. She is a great-granddaughter of Conrad Hilton (founder of Hilton Hotels).
Early life
Hilton was born in New York City, and grew up in Los Angeles.[1] Her father is Richard Hilton, a businessman, and her mother is Kathy Hilton (née Avanzino), a socialite and actress. She grew up with three siblings: Paris Hilton, Barron Nicholas Hilton II, and Conrad Hughes Hilton III. She attended Convent of the Sacred Heart and graduated in 2001.
Career
Fashion designer
In 2004, Hilton launched her own clothing line, http://chickbynickyhilton.net/. She also designed a line of handbags for Japanese company Samantha Thavasa.[2]
In 2007, she started her second line aimed at a more mature audience and higher pricepoint[citation needed], called Nicholai, which had its debut fashion show for the spring/summer 2008 season on September 9, 2007 in New York City during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. The video and photos from the collection can be viewed at the MBFW website.[3]
Model
In 2005, Hilton, along with Kimberly Stewart, was the face of Australian underwear line Antz Pantz.[4] Stewart remains contracted, however Hilton has since been replaced by Australian up-and-coming model Megan Maitland. Around this time, Hilton modeled for the cover of Lucire magazine for its New Zealand and Romanian editions.[citation needed]
Other ventures
In 2006, she entered a partnership to open two Nicky O Hotels, the first in Miami and the second in Chicago. On February 12, 2007, Hilton was sued for breach of contract by her partners.[5]
On September 21, 2010 Nicky and her sister Paris Hilton were stopped by immigration officers at Narita Airport, Japan because of Paris' conviction for drug possession a day earlier; under Japan's strict anti-drug laws, all people sentenced for any drug crime are, in general, rejected entry to the country.[6] [7] The Hiltons were due to appear at a news conference in Tokyo on September 22 to promote Paris Hiltons fashion and fragrance lines along with her sister Nicky.[8] According to the Hiltons' publicists, Narita Airport's immigration office questioned Hilton "for hours". Paris and Nicky were forced to stay close to the airport at a hotel as officials would determine what to do on September 22.[9] It is unlikely that the Hiltons will be able to continue their Asian promotion tour, as they are about to enter countries like Indonesia and Malaysia, with even tougher anti-drug laws than Japan.[10]
Personal life
In 2004, Hilton married businessman Todd Andrew Meister at the Las Vegas Wedding Chapel.[11] The marriage was annulled shortly after.[12] Hilton dated Kevin Connolly on and off from 2004-2006.[13]. Hilton has since been dating David Katzenberg, son of DreamWorks Co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg.[14][15]
