When you’re a Hilton, nothing — not even a pregnancy — can keep you away from high heels.

As expected, there will be no generic maternity wear happening for the youngest Hilton sister. Nicky picked out a Valentino smocked mock neck dress that featured frilly knitted yoke, taking us right back to the Victorian era.

One would think a Hilton would go for kitten heels at most, but were we mistaken. Nicky pulled out all stops in a towering pair of pearl-embellished pumps.

Nicky finished her look with a velvet Oscar de la Renta “Rose Tro” chainlink purse.

When you’re a woman of fashion, style always comes before comfort. Nicky’s bump is quite sizable already, so we can only wonder how she carries it in heels and still look vibrant.

Nicky uploaded a photo of that night’s OOTD and glam, captioning it, “Never underestimate the power of ruffles & red lipstick.”

The heiress revealed that baby is due in early 2018.
