“Lady of the evening”

S1Ep16: Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers

LORELAI: Me too. We could talk about me for years, and believe me, we will. But let’s focus on you, the lady of the evening. No hooker reference intended.
RORY: Glad to hear it.

“Lady of the evening” is an old-fashioned euphemism for a prostitute. It dates to the 1920s.
