Heidi Klum Is the Queen of Halloween—See All of Her Epic Costumes Over the Years

Hail the Pumpkin Queen. Heidi Klum’s Halloween costumes through the years proves that she wins Halloween every damn time. For the past-20 years, Klum has been the queen of Halloween for over-the-top costumes, such as Fiona from Shrek, Jessica Rabbit and the werewolf from Michael Jackson’s 1982 music video for “Thriller.”

Armed with hours’ worth of prosthetics, makeup and one-of-a-kind costumes, Klum never ceases to amaze us. (We mean, the woman hosts an annual star-studded Halloween party, so you know she loves the holiday.) In a 2018 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Klum explained that her love of Halloween stems from her childhood in Cologne, Germany, where she attended the country’s annual Karneval, a famous celebration filled with candy and wild costumes.

“I embrace that title! And I always want to live up to it, year after year,” Klum said at the time of her Halloween Queen title. “When I moved to America, I immediately fell in love with Halloween and the spookiness of it. All that was missing was a fantastic party. It felt like a real opportunity for me.”

So how does she pull off her Halloween costumes each year? Well, Klum told THR that she starts thinking of next year’s costume the day after Halloween. “I start thinking about it on Nov. 1! I usually have two or three ideas that I’m playing with and then I decide on one thing. You have to decide at one point because pieces have to be built and all of that,” she said. “So right when the party is over, the morning of Nov. 1, I start thinking, ‘Maybe next year, I’m going to do that one that I didn’t do this year.’ And then, obviously, throughout the year new things come into my mind because maybe I’ve seen a movie, or I went to a country and was inspired by something I saw there.”
