Nicholai "Nicky" Olivia Hilton was born Oct. 5, 1983 in New York City, NY. She was the second of four children born to Richard Hilton and Kathy Richards, the eldest being Paris Hilton. After graduating high school, she attended fashion school but did not earn her degree.

She designed a handbag line for Samantha Thavasa beginning in 2002. In 2003, Nicky and her sister Paris were both offered roles on the reality show "The Simple Life." Nicky denied the offer, while Paris accepted and let the show bring her stardom. Nicky remained focused on her fashion career instead, launching her clothing line - Chick by Nicky Hilton - in 2004. In late 2004, she was briefly married to Todd Andrew Meister, but the marriage was annulled in November of that year.

She finished her work on the the Samantha Thavasa handbags in 2005. Also in 2005, she became the modeling face of Antz Pantz, an Australian underwear line. She also modeled for the cover of the New Zealand and Romanian editions of Lucire magazine around that time. In 2007, she introduced a new line, "Nicholai," which she hoped would be received by a more mature audience. The line, more expensive than Chick by Nicky Hilton, made its debut in the spring/summer 2008 fashion season.

Nicky has had her share of hot boys. She has dated Brian McFayden, Ian Somerhalder, Kevin Connolly and is currently with David Katzenberg.
