Heidi Klum Debuts Medusa at Her New York Heidiween Party

The nine-hour prosthetic makeover led by effects artist Mike Marino highlights Klum’s performance‑art approach to Halloween.

Overview

  • Klum arrived in an elaborate green, scaly bodysuit with a long tail and a headpiece of moving snakes that rendered her unrecognizable.
  • Her husband, Tom Kaulitz, dressed as a stone Greek warrior to play the mythic victim of Medusa’s gaze.
  • She documented the transformation on Instagram, sharing dentures, reptile contact lenses and application clips set to Rosalía’s “Berghain.”
  • The party at New York’s Hard Rock Hotel drew fashion figures including Jeremy Scott and Christian Siriano, with partners such as Butterfinger and the Empire State Building.
  • Klum said she chose Medusa for its iconic, mysterious power, reinforcing her goal of surprise through high-concept makeup and prosthetics.
