Woman at the orgy who saved Bill - Why did nobody see this?

The woman at the orgy who redeemed Bill wasn't Mandy and neither Domino. It was Marion!

Marion knew him and she loved him. We saw that planted earlier in the movie.
Also Bill tries to call her later but her BF answers the phone. This tells us she isn't there. Clearly the woman at the orgy wasn't the hooker (Domino). And Mandy, the red haired who died of a drug overdose we saw at the party but was approaching Bill, when the other woman (Marion) approached him and 'dragged' him away to try to save him.

There are several misleads ...

Domino disappeared supposedly because of HIV.
Mandy's death is made unclear to let us believe that she was killed (but it was a drug overdose).

Why else would Kubrick put the scene with Marion and her father's death in the movie? they are totally irrelevant to the story otherwise.

Marion has some sort of foreign accent and not surprisingly Marie Richardson the actress who plays her is from Sweden, whereas the woman at the party did not have an accent. Also I didn't get the impression from the scenes with Marion that she had anything close to the type of voluptuous physique that Mandy had.

I think you're forgetting something more simplier... they didn't have the same hair colour. So, they probably were different women.
