Nicky Hilton Rothschild is a well-known American fashion designer, entrepreneur, and socialite. She was raised with the idea that money must be earned and started her career designing handbags for a Japanese company at the age of seventeen, while she was still in high school. She is a member of the famous Hilton family by birth and the Rothschild family by marriage. She attended fashion institutes after graduating from high school, but she left without completing her degree while she kept on creating. She soon expanded into the garment industry, producing two clothing lines: "Nicholai," which had a higher price tag by twenty-four, and "Chick," which was a reasonably priced high fashion brand.

Early days

On October 5, 1983, in New York City, USA, Nicholai Olivia Hilton, the future Nicky Hilton Rothschild, was born. Richard Hilton, her father, is a Hilton Hotels heir. In addition, he is the co-founder and chairman of the Beverly Hills, California-based real estate company, Hilton & Hyland. Kathleen Elizabeth Hilton, née Avanzino, her mother, is a philanthropist, fashion designer, and actor. Nicky, the second of her parents' four children, has two younger brothers, Barron Nicholas Hilton II and Conrad Hughes Hilton III, as well as an older sister named Paris Whitney Hilton.

Nicky spent her teens and twenties in Los Angeles before moving back to the East Coast, probably around 1996, with her family. She characterized her upbringing in an interview as beautiful, with her family traveling with their parents and living in hotel suites rather than typical residences. She stated, "We just fit into their lives." Paris and Nicky were raised similarly to other kids, riding the school bus to and from school. They were also urged to hold bake sales in their communities to gather money for gifts that would be given to the hospital's patients, teaching them that not all kids have the same opportunities.

They were educated early on that money must be earned. She began modeling while still in high school, making her first appearance in Vanity Fair at the age of sixteen with her sister. By the age of seventeen, she had begun creating her own line of handbags. Nicky completed her studies at the all-girls Catholic Convent of the Sacred Heart in Manhattan in 2001. She then enrolled in fashion classes at Parsons School of Design and the Fashion Institute of Technology, respectively. She departed, nonetheless, without receiving a degree.

Following their introduction during James Stunt and Petra Ecclestone's wedding, Hilton started dating banker James Rothschild (born 1985), a member of the Rothschild dynasty and the lone child of Amschel Rothschild. Hilton and Rothschild got engaged when they were on vacation at Lake Como in Italy on August 12, 2014. The wedding took place in The Orangery in London's Kensington Palace Gardens on July 10, 2015. Hilton donned a $77,000 Haute Couture gown by Valentino. Paris, her sister, acted as the maid of honor. The honeymooning couple visited Botswana. They have two daughters: Theodora "Teddy" Marilyn Rothschild and Lily Grace Victoria Rothschild, both of whom were born in July 2016. (born December 2017). It was revealed in January 2022 that Hilton was expecting their third child. In July 2022, she gave birth to their first boy and third child.

Career

Nicky Hilton started her fashion career in 2000, when she was just seventeen years old, by creating handbags for Samantha Thavasa, a Japanese brand. With celebrities like Tara Reid and Britney Spears as customers, her items are now available in flagship shops in the United States and Japan. She began selling apparel in 2004, establishing her own brand named "Chick." The collection was reasonably priced and included popular pieces like sweatsuits, hoodies, trousers, long-sleeved thermal shirts, etc., despite being designed for high fashion.

Along with producing clothing, she continued to model, and in 2005, she and Kimberly Stewart were chosen to represent the Australian underwear brand Antz Pantz. She also posed for the Romanian and New Zealand edition covers of the well-known fashion publication "Lucire" at about the same time. She made an attempt to break into the hotel industry in 2006 by forming a partnership to turn a Miami complex of 95 rooms into the "Nicky O Hotel." In Chicago, a similar hotel was scheduled to open. But the agreement fell through by the next year since it did not work out.

In 2007, Nicky Hilton launched her second clothing brand, "Nicholai," and on September 9, at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City, she debuted her first collection for the spring/summer 2008 season. It cost more since it was intended for high-end clients. She expanded into jewelry in 2010 and introduced her first collection. They were made in the Art Deco style and ranged in price from $82.50 to $740 per piece, with a $200 average price per piece.

In 2014, Hilton debuted a 10-piece collection with eLuxe. She was careful to ensure that it reflected her personal style and gave each piece a name from a member of her family. She also released her debut book, "365 Style," that same year. In 2015, Nicky Hilton debuted a timeless line of handbags in partnership with Linea Pelle. She worked with Smashbox, an Estée Lauder company, to develop a cosmetic line the same year. Three limited-edition beauty products featuring cats make up the set. She created a capsule line of shoes in 2019 with the help of the fashion-comfort company French Sole New York, adding additional padding for maximum comfort. The cost of the sneakers ranges from $125 to $225.

Conclusion

She was known as "Chick" as a youngster due to her appearance. She has contributed to a number of philanthropic organizations, including the Union Rescue Mission, the Make-a-Wish Foundation, the Race to Eradicate MS, and the Starlight Children's Foundation. She truly was a lady of wisdom.
