If there’s one thing we know about Kathy Hilton, it’s that she knows how to throw a party!
The reality star opened the doors to her lavish Bel-Air mansion for her annual holiday pajama party on Thursday, November 5, welcoming a star-studded guest list to celebrate the start of the festive season alongside daughter Nicky Hilton, who co-hosted the event.
The annual bash kicked off Hollywood’s holiday season in style and Us was there to experience all the festive fun.
Presented by Hunky Dory by Kathy Hilton, this year’s celebration was particularly special, ushering in the arrival of the Real Housewives star’s newest offering, Hunky Dory Cocktails By Kathy Hilton.
When it comes to decking the halls, Kathy clearly doesn’t do things by halves.
With the help of her elves, Kathy magically turned the mansion into a festive wonderland. A lavishly and beautifully decorated Christmas tree adorned every room, cocktails flowed throughout the evening and, iconically, a Moët & Chandon champagne vending machine took pride of place in Kathy’s dining room.
“She’s had her tree up since August,” Nicky, 43, joked to Us during the celebrations, while Kathy admitted that putting together the elaborate event took plenty of planning and hard work in the lead up.
“It takes a lot of time to prepare all this,” Kathy, 67, told Us at the event.
Naturally, the guest list was just as impressive as the party itself.
For the festivities, Kathy and Nicky were joined by family members Paris Hilton, Kyle Richards, Rick Hilton and Conrad Hilton.
Plenty of famous faces including Tiffany Haddish, Bijou Phillips, Brooks Nader, Crystal Minkoff, Heather Dubrow, Chanel Ayan, Nancy Davis, Tina Craig, Emma Kenney, Camille Meyer, Gloria Allred, Christine Chiu, Lex Niko and Melissa Gorga also stepped out for the star-studded event.
Guests were treated to an immersive shopping experience, with a curated collection of Kathy’s must-have brands and products available throughout the mansion. Attendees could wander between stations, pick up holiday goodies and enjoy a little festive pampering along the way.
Among the highlights was a Hunky Dory-themed Printfresh pajama collection, personalized Theo Grace Lucky Me Clover Initial Bag Charms and Touche hand cream and driving gloves, complete with onsite embroidery.
There was also a Hilton x Ruggable holiday collection of doormats, custom holiday mahjong mats from Oh My Mahjong and a Sockerbit candy bar for guests with a sweet tooth.
Beauty lovers were equally spoiled, with Ardell offering expert lash applications, while Locks & Mane provided hair extensions and styling by Drybar. Guests could finish their looks with custom Hunky Dory scrunchies by The Sis Kiss.
Kathy Hilton wants to ensure The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 reunion is “hunky dory,” so she stopped by the set. “Kathy Hilton makes a special appearance during the #RHOBH Reunion,” a post on Bravo’s Instagram on Saturday, January 27, read. “Coming soon.” In the photo, Kathy, 64, wore a sequined knee-length skirt […]
Other favorites included a cashmere sweater embroidery station by Kathryn McCarron, a Saje aromatherapy scent bar featuring a blind scent test and giveaways, and a Hulken bag bedazzling station.
Guests could also explore Revive’s skincare advent calendar pop-up, receive Niagen IVs from Niagen Bioscience and enjoy Addyi’s Pillow Talk Tarot with celebrity astrologer Angie Banacki.
But the evening wasn’t just about shopping up a storm and indulging in the extravagant celebrations — it is the season of giving, after all.
Guests were encouraged to bring an unwrapped toy to donate to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and the LA Mission, with the event supporting several other charitable organizations, including Animal Haven, Camp Cocker Rescue and Yogi’s House.
