The blonde beauty joined around 500 well-heeled guests at the glamorous ball who turned out to celebrate, enjoy cocktails and eat hors d’oeuvres.

Nicky and her fellow society belles also got the chance to admire some world-renowned art with breathtaking exhibits on display.

The fashion designer showed off her credentials in choosing the stylish gown, with its plunging-yet-modest neckline, delicate detailing and cinched waist.

And as usual, Nicky sported her headline-grabbing engagement ring, weighing an estimated eight carats, gifted to her by her banking scion heir husband James Rothschild in 2014.

Go back to the future in a silver gown by Carolina Herrera

When it comes to style, Nicky Hilton has got expensive taste. Her wardrobe is full of labels like Alaia and Dolce & Gabbana, and we just can't go without mentioning her incredible Valentino wedding gown!

Carolina Herrera is another of her go-to names, and the futuristic silver dress she wore to a society ball in New York this week is by the iconic designer. We love the striking silver foil fabric and halterneck style of this dress, and the button details down the front are a nice touch too.

Unfortunately it's not available to buy, but click (right) to shop the current Carolina Herrera collection at Saks Fifth Avenue.

But, true to form, the socialite gave her ensemble an edgy touch through her eye-catching matching box clutch and by eschewing jewels for the night.  

The style icon allowed her blonde tresses to tumble down loosely over her shoulders in light waves. 

Her make-up was flawlessly applied with a slick of liquid eyeliners drawing out the twinkly blue colour of her eyes, and light elsewhere allowing her natural beauty to shine.

Clearly excited for the night ahead, Nicky took to Instagram on Thursday afternoon to share a selfie with her 1.1million followers.

The snap highlighted the gorgeous dropped back of the silver gown - and the mother-of-one's enviable figure.

Nicky gave birth last July to the couple's first daughter, Lily, and almost immediately flaunted a sculpted post-baby body.  

Two balls in a week: On Monday Nicky looked equally dazzling - if less regal - in red and leopard print at another ball, this time Art Production Fund's Bright Lights, Big City Gala in New York
