Kathy Hilton's not just the ultimate prankster and the consummate hostess. As it turns out, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills rookie also has some genius fashion ideas up her sleeve. (As if we could love her any more!)

On September 22, Kathy was photographed wearing a tablecloth as she exited Craig's restaurant in Los Angeles, where she had dinner after hosting a charity event for Children's Hospital L.A. earlier that evening.

Kathy had gone into the eatery wearing a pretty red dress, but the white table linens she later wore looked very chic! Leave it to Kathy to turn a plain white cloth into a halter-neck dress with a breezy skirt and a dash of Grecian inspiration. She paired the toga-like look with dashing red pumps and her trademark smile. 

On Instagram, a follower asked Kathy about her "beautiful white dress." She responded, "It's a tablecloth!" and provided an explanation as to why she was wearing the non-traditional garment: "I got overheated doing the auction [with] all the lights and crowded room you couldn't move." She later added: "I was soaking wet."

And yet, she kept her cool. Good thinking, Kathy!
