Heidi Klum knows how to keep the people on their toes. The Queen of Halloween is known to go all-out for the bone-chilling holiday, with past costumes ranging from a picture-perfect Jessica Rabbit to an overgrown worm. And 2024 ought to be no different, as she hinted at her latest getup on social media ahead of her annual Halloween bash in New York City Oct.
31. In an Instagram photo shared hours before her spooky soiree, the longtime America’s Got Talent judge teased what appeared to be a giant model of a big toe—or perhaps a thumb—highlighting its size by wrapping her manicured hand around the artificial appendage. Shortly thereafter, the supermodel, 51, posted another cryptic teaser , this time showing a close-up video of a scaly prosthetic being blow-dried.
The posts were enough to get fans guessing what this year’s costume could be, as Heidi’s followers flooded the comments with their best theories as to what she’d be dressed up as. “She said it was something from another planet,” one comment read. “She's going as E.
T.” Other guesses included Beauty and the Beast or King Kong , while another user predicted that Heidi was dressing up as a Thumb Thumb from Spy Kids , commenting with a GIF of the faceless henchmen from the 2001 action comedy. A post shared by Heidi Klum (@heidiklum) “Are you going be a foot,” another follower wondered.
“The lines on your face is giving knuckles.” Heidi showed off those “lines” during an Amazon Live broadcast, offering a clearer look at her preparations as her glam squad applied beige prosthetic strips to her face and neck. She also said that preparations for the costume began back in November 2023, and that this year’s idea “has never been done before.
” A post shared by Heidi Klum (@heidiklum) During the broadcast, Heidi further teased the ensemble by revealing it would once again be a couples costume with husband Tom Kaulitz . She later posted a video of the Tokio Hotel member in the makeup chair, captioning the clip writing, “He is such a good sport.” Keep reading to see some of Heidi’s greatest Halloween getups over the years before her latest masterpiece is revealed.
2023 Heidi Klum was proud as a peacock on the red carpet of her annual party, enlisting nine people to dress as her beautiful tail feathers and claws. Happy Halloworm from Heidi! While hosting her 21st annual Halloween party presented by Now Screaming X Prime Video and Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur, the America's Got Talent judge debuted her worm costume. After enjoying a night at Sake No Hana, Heidi changed into a nude sheer bedazzled jumpsuit.
"Halloween is different this year," the reality TV star wrote on Instagram amid the coronavirus pandemic, "but that shouldn't stop us from getting creative at home." Heidi channeled a creepy mummy for her Halloween short video. It marked one of her many spooky looks in the five-minute clip.
Heidi blended into her walls with this clever costume in 2020. Heidi, are you there? The model was hard to spot, as she perfectly matched the blue and black-streaked bedsheets. The star's costume was truly out of this world when she turned herself into a gory alien.
The supermodel transformed into everyone's favorite green princess, Fiona, from Shrek . An idea she'd been dreaming about for awhile, "I just never found a crazy enough person that wants to do Shrek with me," she told People . Enter: husband Tom Kaulitz .
The America's Got Talent judge had a hair-raising good time dressed up as the werewolf from Michael Jackson 's "Thriller" music video. "I wanted to do the 'Thriller' dance," she explained . Instead of channeling someone else for the spooky season, the fashion expert opted to clone herself five times with the help of prosthetics and some fabulous wigs.
Heidi who? The former Project Runway host answered only to Jessica Rabbit. "They said, 'Are you really in there Mama?'" she told E! News about her kids' reaction to her incredible metamorphosis into a butterfly. When describing her kids' responses to this elderly get-up, the star told E! News , "The one time that I [looked] like me but older, they were scared.
" Heidi gave Elizabeth Taylor a run for her money with this chic Cleopatra costume. Klum's seen here with ex-husband Seal at a time when they were presumably quite a bit more bananas about one another. The former Victoria's Secret Angel looked like she hopped right out of an anatomy textbook.
She hosted two parties that year, debuting this look on Oct. 29 in Las Vegas. The model is tall, but not that tall.
Heidi wore stilts to make this robot monstrosity more menacing. Little known fact about crows: a group of them is called a murder. Perhaps that's why the model chose the bird for her haunting costume.
Distressed to discover the step-and-repeat was black, "Now I work on the background, too," she told People . "Since then, I do the step-and-repeat, the carpet, everything." 2008 Heidi's costume as the Hindu goddess of death and time, Kali, has since divided the internet.
Heidi's ferocious feline doesn't hold a creepy candle to the CGI in Cats . She's the apple of our eye in this costume, which was inspired by the biblical tale of Eve and the forbidden fruit. Eat your heart out—literally! Not all witches wear black, you know? In fact, this witch had a lacy costume that included a fake skeleton she got at a medical supply store.
Gladiator goddess or sci-fi dream? Either way, this vivacious look goes down as one of her best. The former Victoria's Secret model was red hot, as she channeled the iconic Betty Boop. In her second year hosting, the star went full Lady Godiva—horse and all! While the model's looks have become a lot more elaborate, for her very first party she was just Heidi (as in the character from Johanna Spyri ’s German novels), choosing to dress up in a dirndl "but not a tradtional dirndl," she told People .
"And in those days I still did my hair and makeup by myself.".
