Nicky Hilton

So apparently the less-visible Hilton spawn is a fashion designer. Or so they say. Actually, I haven't found much comment about her collections at all, apart from her last one, called "Chick," being pretty sad. She showed at Los Angeles Fashion Week recently, billed as Nicholai (her actual first name. That's a male name, isn't it?) but the runway backdrop said "NH Nicky Hilton." Whatever. It's not like she's going to be taken seriously anytime soon, what with that whorish appendage called an older sister always in the limelight.

There's scant little information on LA Fashion Week, so it must be a pretty pathetic affair (c'mon, the Pussycat Dolls had a collection!) And a quick Google search brings up more photos of Paris making an ass of herself at Nicky's show than of Nicky's clothing. From what I gather, on the runway the collection appeared to be poorly constructed and of cheap materials. But surprisingly, the designs themselves are not all that bad, at least not in photographs. Her inspiration was equestrian meets bondage - whips, leather, that sort of thing.

Apart from that third look with the wet sealhide-looking tights, the first two aren't bad, and that center dress is actually pretty cute...


...as are these three, particularly the very Mod black and white colorblocked dress. But then there are those slimy-looking tights again....
