For over two decades, actress and model Heidi Klum has been hosting a Halloween party, always wowing her fans with creative and unique costumes, earning her the title “Queen of Halloween.”
Each year, fans eagerly wait to see what costume Klum will choose, and this year was no exception. The America’s Got Talent judge started her first Halloween party in 2000, only canceling the event in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Heidi Klum’s 2024 Halloween Costume
This year, the Queen of Halloween chose to dress as an iconic movie character: E.T., the extraterrestrial. Accompanied by her husband, Tom Kaulitz, the party began around 10 p.m.
Throughout the day, Heidi shared hints about her costume on social media. She partnered with Amazon Live, allowing her followers to watch her transformation into the famous alien.
As another teaser, Klum posted a photo showing her hands with red nails holding what looked like a toe.
As is tradition, the evening started with a red carpet, where guests showcased their costumes to the media. The event featured sponsors like Amazon Prime, Hard Rock Cafรฉ, and Butterfinger, and Heidi shared the experience through an Instagram Live.
Heidi Klum’s Legendary Halloween Costumes
The Halloween queen typically invests thousands of dollars in her party, with a big part of that budget going toward her costume. Last year, she dressed as a blue-and-green peacock alongside other models.
Klum often dresses as movie characters, like Fiona from Shrek, Jessica Rabbit, and even a giant Transformer. As a Star Wars fan, she once dressed as a clone, with look-alikes to create the illusion of an army at her famous Halloween party. Her creativity knows no bounds; she has dressed as an older version of herself and even as a giant worm in a recent year.
Her transformation into E.T. took nearly the entire day, and by 1 p.m., she shared a sneak peek of the prosthetics being applied for her E.T. look. Costume designer Mike Marino was responsible for crafting the costumeโs structure.
