Kathy Hilton is revealing what led to her latest fashion statement after she was spotted sporting a tablecloth after attending the Christmas in September charity event.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has had plenty of quirky moments on the show this season, but she took things to a whole new level when she exited a popular Los Angeles restaurant donning a white tablecloth.
The prominent socialite had begun the evening in a red and white dress with matching heels, but at some point while having dinner with friends, including Elliott Mintz and Faye Resnick, she switched up her look in dramatic fashion. Not surprisingly, her odd choice in attire began to make headlines, leaving fans wondering what was going through her mind. But thankfully, Kathy is spilling the tea.

On Thursday, she took to Instagram to share the story behind her unforgettable tablecloth look with a little help from her designer friend.
Kathy began by touching on the charity event, explaining there was a huge crowd in attendance, which made it super toasty inside the venue.
“It was so hot,” she insisted. “And I was onstage actually participating for two hours in the auction and was roasting, and roasting, and roasting.”
She then pulled out the red and white dress she was wearing prior to changing, revealing it is made of wool fabric so it began “sticking” to her.
As a result, while having a burger following the charity event, she took off the dress and enlisted the help of her designer friend, Vera, who grabbed a tablecloth and whipped up an elegant look for her.
“She made the tablecloth like it was a sarong like from the south of France,” Kathy gushed as Vera began to recreate the epic look in the Instagram video.
”It was either that or Hunky Dory would have to go home,” she laughed. “So that was that. What can I tell you? I didn’t have my fan with me, and Hunky Dory was roasting. So, that is the dealio on that.”
Of course, Kathy’s famous daughters weighed in on the video. Nicky Hilton commented, “You are very resourceful mom…????????♀️????????.”
Paris Hilton wrote, “That’s hot???? You are too funny!???????? Love you Mom!????????”
Kathy’s co-star, Garcelle Beauvais, also chimed in, writing, “You look gorgeous.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 11 airs Wednesday nights on Bravo at 8/7c.
