58 Photos That Prove Heidi Klum Is the Ultimate Halloween Queen

For Heidi’s first bash, she wore a costume with vague S&M vibes—spikes, patent leather, you know the drill—plus two Pippi Longstocking braids.

While yes, it’s clear that Heidi is in costume here, it’s def not obvious how committed she would one day become to the art of dressing up.

Heidi leveled up quite a bit for her second Halloween party, dressing up as Lady Godiva—an injured or dead version, to be exact, thanks to the blood dripping from her mouth.

Heidi wore a floor-length blonde wig and a sparkly white bodysuit, which was pretty conservative by Lady Godiva’s standards. Legend has it that the English noblewoman rode her horse buck naked through town. Legit.

The horse wasn’t Heidi’s only date to the party (although we’ll give her a 10/10 for pulling off that grand entrance). Her then-husband, Ric Pipino, showed up as a knight in shining armor.

Year three of the model’s Halloween hosting duties gave us scary Betty Boop—scary because she wore fangs under her red pout. Why, you ask? The world may never know.

The key to Heidi’s Betty Boop getup was her hair and makeup. The model wore a black wig, curled with Betty’s signature loops, and rocked some serious lashes to appear even more cartoon-like. Here, Heidi poses with model Karolína Kurková, who dressed like a 1920s flapper. Guys, this was before Instagram existed! Can you even??

Ric was Heidi’s date once again, and he opted for an Elvis Presley costume. His platform shoes totally steal the show, IMO.

It’s unclear what served as Heidi’s costume inspo in 2003. A…golden…monster…alien? What’s obvious is that she went all out, from her braids all the way down to those wild boots.

The model spray-painted her entire body with gold glitter, rocked a set of gold teeth, and painted her eyebrows the same shade to finish off the look.

If you were lucky enough to attend Heidi’s party in ’03 (any of you???), then you already know she made a grand entrance: She arrived in a gold spaceship on stage. Ooookkkkayyy then.

In 2004, Heidi arrived at her party dressed as a scantily clad witch with scarlet hair. Her makeup was amazing, as usual. She also gave a skeleton a piggyback ride on her way in. She is nothing if not committed, okay?

Apparently, the model had a whole “fly into the party like an actual witch” thing planned, but she ended up getting stuck in her harness (see exhibit A), which undid the witch illusion. Hate when that happens!

It doesn’t look like her failed stunt put a damper on her fun though. Here’s Heidi posing with her then-boyfriend Seal, who was dressed as the phantom from The Phantom of the Opera.

Heidi loves wearing a good stiletto boot with her Halloween costume. I’m willing to bet she may have even planned her whole look around this footwear choice. The black patent leather thigh-high boots are just to die for, don’t ya think?

The model finished off her vampire costume with long fangs, an enormous curly wig, and a bleeding heart pinned to her corset dress, as one does.

Seal showed up dressed as a cop. Based on the Getty archives, it seems like a lot of handcuff jokes were made.

Back in 2006, Heidi and Seal showed up to her annual shindig as the epitome of couple goals (sorry to use that phrase, but alas, it’s true). He went as Eve and she was the proverbial forbidden fruit.

Later, we learned that Heidi was secretly pregnant—and suddenly, the bulky costume made a lot more sense for the Victoria’s Secret model.

No one can say that Heidi doesn’t make sacrifices in the name of Halloween. “The problem with that was that I was so big, I couldn’t fit into a car, so I had to get a convertible at the last moment just so I could get to the party,” she told the New York Post. “I couldn’t drink water because my arms didn’t reach my face. I couldn’t even sit. That wasn’t so much fun—I didn’t fully think that one through!”
