Heidi Klum transformed into Medusa for her iconic Halloween party

Heidi Klum had wanted to be a "super-ugly" Medusa for "quite some time".

The Project Runway host is known for her elaborate Halloween costumes and this year proved no different as she stepped out for her annual Halloween party at the Hard Rock Hotel: The Venue in New York on Friday (31.10.25) night as the Gorgon, complete with moving snakes for her and terrifying teeth.

She told E! News: "I've been thinking about Medusa for quite some time, because I've seen over the years obviously many, many Medusas, and I thought, You know, one day I'm going to try my own...

"I really wanted to have snakes that were moving, a super-ugly, super-scary face, really ugly teeth, and to be like a really long rattlesnake."

Heidi's husband, Tom Kaulitz, dressed as a warrior she had turned into stone, and the pair revealed they had spent five months working on their outfits, before taking 10 hours to get ready on Friday.

Heidi said: "Everything is hand-painted. About 15 people have been working on this, and I think they did a fantastic job."
