Heidi Klum Unveils Jaw-Dropping Medusa Getup at Her 24th Annual Halloween Bash
Supermodel Heidi Klum kicked off the spooky season in style by hosting her 24th annual Halloween Party at the Hard Rock Hotel New York. The event, which has become a coveted gathering for A-listers and costume connoisseurs alike, saw Klum slaying the red carpet in a show-stopping Medusa costume that left onlookers in awe.
The hand-painted masterpiece featured green scales that extended into a rattlesnake's tail, complete with animatronic snakes replacing her signature locks. Klum revealed that the elaborate process took nine hours to create, adding to its mesmerizing effect.
"I wanted to explore classic monsters of history and reimagine one in a modern way," Klum explained to Vogue. The supermodel singled out Medusa as an iconic figure, drawing inspiration from centuries-old paintings and sculptures depicting her powerful and haunting presence.
Klum's costume took social media by storm when she began teasing it at the start of October, sharing eerie angles on Instagram and leaving fans with a month's worth of speculation about this year's look. The anticipation culminated in a dramatic reveal that exceeded expectations.
This year's Heidiween festivities also saw an impressive array of celebrity guests, including Jay Manuel, Maye Musk, and Jonathan Cheban, all of whom brought their own creative interpretations to the party. With Klum's Medusa getup taking center stage, it was clear that this year's celebration would be one for the books.
In past years, Klum has stunned with costumes ranging from a wriggling worm in 2022 to a bodacious Jessica Rabbit in 2015. This latest incarnation cements her status as a master of Halloween fashion, leaving fans eagerly anticipating next year's reveal.

️ Klum's Medusa costume is straight fire 
! I love how she took inspiration from classic art and modernized it 
. The detail on that hand-painted scale masterpiece 
is insane 
. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next year's costume 
. Maybe a mermaid or Greek goddess? 
. Like, who needs actual artistic talent when you can just slap some paint on and call it a masterpiece? And don't even get me started on the animatronic snakes - talk about a bold move... to make something that looks like a hot mess 
. I mean, Heidi's clearly a genius, but I'm not convinced this is her finest hour... yet 
it's like she stepped out of an ancient Greek sculpture and into the modern world. The detail on those snakes is insane 
and I love how she incorporated animatronics to make it all come together. It's like, who else can pull off a 9-hour painting process? 
, I'm seriously OBSESSED with Heidi Klum's Medusa costume this year!!! 
The fact that it took 9 hours to create is insane, but totally worth it. 
She always pushes the boundaries of Halloween fashion and I'm SO here for it 
. And can we talk about how amazing her party was? 
But what's up with all these elaborate costumes every year? Can't we just have a normal Halloween where people wear their PJs and trick-or-treat like normal humans? 
I mean Heidi Klum is always pushing the boundaries, but this Medusa getup tho! nine hours to create that thing and it's still just a costume... shouldn't we be using our time and energy for more pressing issues like climate change or social justice? 
, and that costume was EVERYTHING 
! But, let me fact-check some things for you... did she really create it herself? The article says 9 hours, but aren't there super talented designers who specialize in hand-painted masterpieces? And what about all the teasing on Instagram? Was that just a clever marketing ploy or did she actually spend months perfecting the costume? 
. And can we talk about how she teases these costumes all month long? It's like we're all in on some spooky season secret 
! That Medusa costume though... 9 hours of work and it's still lowkey slaying my life 
. But hey, who am I to judge? The girl slayed the red carpet, and that's all that matters 
.
