Domino? The hooker he meets beforehand (Vanessa Shaw)?

Which woman?
Isn’t the implication that it’s Mandy? Elaborate more on your suspicion about Domino. The consistent costuming (or lack thereof) for the women at the orgy culminates the film’s argument that womens’ individual identities get homogenized to streamline them into commodities for the ruling wealthy class depicted in the movie, but I’ve never watched the scene with the thought that Domino was involved.

It’s Julienne Davis in that scene, so Ben’s right, it’s Mandy. However . . .

Kubrick does quite a lot of visual rhyming between the Alice and Domino and Alice and Mandy—

Alice is a red head, Mandy is a red head
Alice’s purple sheets, Domino’s purple dress
the dressing table mirrors

etc.

. . . so you’re being invited to see the women as associated, so you could argue to the confusion is intentional.

Visual rhyming: yes…such an ideal way of describing what’s going on across that movie.
Also Alice in her underwear and Sobieski in her underwear.

“Was the girl at the mansion in “Eyes Wide Shut” was it…… Domino?"

I think it’s about time for your grammatical shellacking.

-Also Alice in her underwear and Sobieski in her underwear.-

Right . . . one of the possible conclusions that could be drawn is that all the other significant female characters in the film are “dream versions” of Alice.
