New York - While the real Paris Hilton started a jail stretch in Los Angeles on Monday for driving on a suspended license, her wax work dummy in New York was also getting into the prison spirit with a new wardrobe.

Madame Tussaud's took the opportunity to dress the celebrity socialite's wax mannequin up in a black and white striped prison suit, instead of the low cut tank top and turquoise sweat suit she is normally seen in.

A spokesperson said Hilton's dummy would stay in prison garb for as long as her real-life counterpart, who will spend 23 days in jail.
