It’s officially the scariest night of the year. While everyone in Hollywood and beyond is showing off their elaborate costumes, there’s one reveal we’re really excited about.

Heidi Klum has established herself as the official queen of spooky season thanks to her wild, weird, and wonderful outfits over the past few years. This includes 2022’s unforgettable stint as Bug and last year’s equally impressive ET version, complete with shiny fingers and fashionable accessories.

Well, she’s a supermodel…

She easily outshines the guests at the annual Halloween party in New York, and this year will be no exception.

During an appearance on Good Morning America earlier this week, she teased: “I am already ready. But if I tease you, I will become very ugly. Very scary! But very ugly.”

As the festivities begin, let’s take a look at some of the most impressive costumes from Heidiween 2025 and beyond.

But that’s not all about Hollywood (or Heidiwood). Even politicians are getting in on the action, including President Trump, who hosts a party at his Florida home.

Maye Musk was one of the first guests at Heidi’s party held at the Hard Rock Hotel, and channeled her inner Cruella de Vil for the occasion.

She donned the role wearing a floor-length leather black dress with lace details, paired with a white jacket and the Disney villain’s trademark wig. The model, who is Elon Musk’s mother, added a pop of color with a red leopard print bag.

American actress La La Anthony (pictured with Damson Idris) was among other stars to attend an early Halloween party this week.

Not all of the costumes turned out well, and some said that American model Julia Fox’s blood-soaked Jackie Kennedy costume was terrible.

Others were more popular.

Singer Demi Lovato recreated her “Poot Lovato” meme that went viral on Tumblr in 2015. This is a reference to his alter ego being locked in the basement.

Other social media highlights so far include Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s daughter North West and her friends dressed up as Japanese kawaii metal band BABYMETAL.

Comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg portrayed herself as the divorcee of Lily Allen and David Harbour.

Content creator and media personality Amelia Dimoldenberg has never made easy choices when it comes to her Halloween costumes, and this devilish costume definitely looks like it took some effort.

The night before, before Halloween, she went to a party in New York following singer Lily Allen’s divorce from Stranger Things actor David Harbour. Dressed as the Sheriff of Harbour’s character, she listened to Allen’s latest album, which referenced their breakup.

And singer Ed Sheeran dressed up as Pennywise the clown, played by Stephen King in the movie It.

Meanwhile, US Vice President JD Vance donned a wig and became a bizarre meme version of himself. The same meme reportedly led to a Norwegian tourist being banned from the United States earlier this year.
