She's the Queen of Halloween costumes!

Heidi Klum as Medusa
Published 31st Oct 2025

When it comes to Halloween, German model Heidi Klum basically wins EVERY YEAR with her outrageous, amazing and simply bonkers outfits!

The Halloween Queen has rocked some pretty iconic outfits at her annual party over the last two decades. For her 2023 party on Tuesday 31st October, Heidi hit headlines again as she turned up dressed as a peacock, featuring a 10-person entourage as her wings. She somehow topped that last year, rocking up to her annual party dressed as E.T.

As she dressed as Medusa for Halloween 2025, take a look back at some of her best looks over the years:

2025: Medusa

For 2025, Heidi dressed as Medusa, with moving snakes in her hair and a very freaky tongue! She wrote on Instagram: 'HAPPY HEIDIWEEN 🐍Don't stare too long or you'll turn to stone 🖤 #HeidiHalloween.'

2024: E.T.

Going all out once again, Heidi showed up to her party on Thursday 31st October 2024 dressed as E.T.

Peacock

For her 2023 outfit, Heidi dressed as stunning peacock, featuring a 10-person entourage as her wings! Her husband joined her at the party, dressed as an egg.

2022: Worm

After a two-year absence thanks to the Coronavirus pandemic, Heidi went all out once again in 2022, this time dressing as an elaborate worm. The outfit was two years in the making, and Heidi certainly got into character, wriggling around on the red carpet.

2019: Prosthetic Alien

Just when we thought Heidi couldn't top any of her previous looks, the model rocked up to her annual party dressed as an alien, a transformation which took her a massive 10 hours with prosthetics.

2018: Princess Fiona from Shrek

Arguably her best look yet, Heidi embraced her inner ogre as she dressed as Princess Fiona from Shrek in 2018.

2017: Michael Jackson's Thriller

Heidi wore a near-identical outfit to that from Michael Jackson's 1982 Thriller music video.

2016: Er, Heidi Klum

Nah, you're not seeing things. The star turned up with her 'clones' in 2016.

2015: Jessica Rabbit

Heidi channeled the leading lady from Who Framed Roger Rabbit? in 2015.

2014: Butterfly

Oh, we were gonna wear that 🙄.

2013: Old lady

Long before that FaceApp fad that morphed us all into old people earlier this year, Heidi hobbled into her 2013 bash dressed as her elderly self. Prosthetics on point.

2012: Cleopatra

Casual.

2011: Human body

Heidi quite literally stripped back her look in 2011, even turning up to the event with two men dressed as surgeons in tow. Iconic.

2011: Ape

In 2011, Heidi went all out with two custom looks. She captured the zeitgeist the year Rise of the Planet of the Apes was released in cinemas.

2010: Robot

Good luck finding a pair of stilts and metallic purple catsuit at your local fancy dress shop, hun.

2009: Crow

Ornithophobics, look away NOW. Heidi wore an intricate crow costume to her 2009 party.

2008: Hindu Goddess

Kali, the Hindu goddess of death and time, anyone?

2007: A cat

Approximately 9000x better than our attempts at a cat, which are typically Karen-Smith-from-Mean-Girls levels of basic.

2006: The Forbidden Fruit

At her '06 bash, Heidi dressed as the Forbidden Fruit, with then-husband Seal rocking up as Eve.

2005: Vampire

Kind of like Cher got into a fight in the bin liner aisle. We totally mean that as the highest compliment, though.

2004: Witch

Heidi gave us an inspired take on the classic witch back in 2004.

2003: The Golden Girl

Sort of like an extra from Gladiator, no? We're into it.

2002: Betty Boop

Heidi donned a pair of lashes the Geordie Shore girls would be jealous of as she channeled her inner Betty Boop in 2002.

2001: Lady Godiva

Making an entrance on a horse? Beats our Fiat 500, babes.

2000: The dominatrix

Oh, she really went hell for leather with this one.
