Paris and Nicky Hilton
Sarah Howard and Cameron Richardson
Dori Cooperman and Casey Johnson
Devon Aoki
Daphne Guinness
Tory Burch
Paris Hilton and Brooke Davenport
They might have been on Sunset Boulevard for Nicolas Berggruen’s annual party at the Chateau Marmont but it might as well have been a New York society reunion of glamorous heiresses with the decade’s original “It” girl that connected them all.
Paris Hilton, steered clear of the diamond heiress Zeta Graff at the swank Hollywood affair, as they had been fought bitterly in court years ago over a necklace and over Paris Latsis, a Greek shipping heir and an ex-boyfriend for both.
Paris and her sister Nicky Hilton spent enough time at the party to catch up with their childhood best friend Casey Johnson. Nicky’s ex-husband Todd Meister came to the event with his new girlfriend Jamie Tisch.
Casey and Dori Cooperman would later end their evenings at Villa, the chic hotspot, where they met with one of Dori’s friends from rehab, Lindsay Lohan.
Paris also has a history with area socialite Sarah Howard. A younger Paris, with Nicky and Casey, allegedly hurled cocktails at Sarah at the nightclub Deluxe for speaking to another ex-boyfriend of hers, the model Jason Shaw.
British fashion icon Daphne Guinness is the aunt of Stavros Niarchos III, Paris’s ever-constant boyfriend over the years. Model and Benihana heiress Devon Aoki also attended the party; it was Paris’s sex tape with Devon’s ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon that catapulted New York’s big-name society girl into mainstream acclaim.

I think that Paris is one of those girls that look stunning in some pictures and not so much in others. She looks so great here. Love her dress and shoes. Nicky is my favorite Hilton (because she seems like such a genuinely sweet girl) but Paris definitely has the most spark in that family.
Casey, Devon, and Daphne are just so petite. They look like dolls! Daphne is a goddess and I think her style is amazing. I once read that almost everything she wears to formal events is couture.
Oh, and I am not afraid to admit that I like Paris. She’s cute and all the other New York socialites we see nowadays on PAP aim to be Paris one day anyway.
paris’ makeup is so well done. the lip colour is great and the short hair looks really chic on her. love devon aoki as she’s very gorgeous! daphne’s shoes are rockin in my book.
Tory and Daphne look like they got lost and ended up at the wrong party. Aside from Paris’ lipstick, a shade she couldn’t have picked all by her grownup self, the rest of this party is a fashion disaster and a social disgrace. Bad-check writing Dori “hobnobbing” with rehab friends? Casey showing up anywhere in public after that Vanity Fair piece? Won’t even get started on the Hilton’s.
I still remember when Paris, Nicky, and Casey were “the” girls. They had the famous last names, the boy drama, and of course the endless bank accounts. Every nightclub promoter and gossip columnist wanted a piece of them. So young, so pretty, and always scandalous.
paris hilton is a disgrace.
what is the expression?…… “white trash”?…..it seems to define her perfectly.
What happened to Daphne Guinness? She used to be so pretty when she was younger.
Paris’s red lipstick makes all the others look incredibly washed out. I can’t believe I am actually complimenting her!
Of all the events to cover…
This is sort of a “smut extravaganza,” James. You know who about whom I am referring. Not the usual suspects. There are some lovelies here. Others? Bleeech. The venue? Putrid.
I’m on board with kk re: Casey Johnson. I am in true disbelief that she’d show her frighteningly overhauled face in public after the VF “I’m going to show Auntie Libet who’s the hot boss now” embarrassment.
Not to mention the moronic interviews published wherein her true stated heart’s desire was to adopt a female Cambodian child and buy her a leopard bikini. To piss off Auntie Libet. For stealing her boyfriend.
Well hooray for Casey. She has a Kazakh child now. What a mouth breather.
I was really excited to see a new post here, and then I realized it centered around L.A. & Paris Hilton. Disappointing. Tory Burch looks cute though.
