She was wearing a costume of the fictional comic villain Poison Ivy with a leaf covered top and a dark purple wig.
Partygoers tell police Chelsea left the party around 3:00 a.m.
Hundreds of people were at that party.
Friends and family have blanketed southeast Michigan with fliers, t-shirts and signs with her picture, helping police with search efforts.
