LOOK: Heidi Klum transforms into Medusa for Halloween
The Queen of Halloween strikes again!
Heidi Klum is known for serving show-stopping costumes during spooky season. In the past three years, she dressed up as a worm, as a peacock with 10 acrobats, and E.T. This 2025, she has transformed into Medusa—complete with moving snakes as her hair.
"For #HeidiHalloween 2025, I set my gaze on bringing a classic monster into the modern world, and Medusa was irresistible. Iconic, mysterious, ferocious. Her legend and the art she's inspired prove how haunting and timeless her power is."
In Greek mythology, Medusa is a gorgon who can turn anyone who looks into her eyes into stone.
Heidi's team shared that her costume took six months to make with a team of 15 people hand-painting each aspect.
Her full look, created by Emmy Award-winning makeup artist Mike Marino and his team, embodied Medusa's petrifying energy with green scales all over her body, a forked tongue, a snake tail, and contacts with slit pupils. Completing the look was a headpiece of moving snakes.
Still, Heidi made sure she could dance in her creepy costume. "Because my friend Questlove is deejaying, and I am ready to shake this rattlesnake tail!" she told Vogue.
The supermodel's husband, Tom Kaulitz, meanwhile, dressed as a Greek soldier she turned into stone.
Heidi throws an annual Halloween party, with this year's festivities held at the Hard Rock Hotel in New York. Some celebrities in attendance include Rei Ami as her KPop Demon Hunters character Zoey, her co-star Ejae as Jinu's pet tiger Derpy, rugby player Ilona Maher as a vintage Barbie, Darren Criss as Shrek, James Charles as a headless horseman,
In the past, the supermodel also dressed up as a gory alien, clones of herself, Jessica Rabbit, Princess Fiona, and a human body.
