Heidi Klum Teases 'Extra Ugly' 2025 Costume

Heidi Klum is teasing her 2025 'Heidiween' costume as "extra ugly and super scary" (and 'maybe stinky') ahead of an Oct. 31 reveal, sharing a 3D mold of her face as she collaborates with prosthetic makeup designer Mike Marino. Klum, recently named the face of L’Oréal Paris’ Midnight Cream, says she feels intense pressure to outdo herself each year but already has a plan for her 2026 costume. Her annual New York Halloween party, launched in 2000 and paused during parts of the pandemic, has become known for large-scale, performance-art transformations that require hours of makeup and staging. Past show-stopping looks — including a glowing alien in 2019, a fully exposed cadaver in 2011, last year’s E.T. duo with husband Tom Kaulitz, and a peacock with Cirque du Soleil dancers — explain why fans eagerly await each reveal.
