Heidi Klum Unveils Medusa Transformation at New York Halloween Party

The transformation drew on months of planning using prosthetics by mask artist Mike Marino, with roughly ten hours in makeup.

Overview

  • Klum revealed the look on Instagram and on the red carpet at her annual event at the Hard Rock Hotel New York near Times Square.
  • The full-body design featured green scales, snake hair, oversized ears, claws, a crocodile-style tail, pronounced gums and fanged teeth with a long, pointed tongue.
  • Tom Kaulitz appeared in a stone-gray Greek warrior look often described as Perseus and said on the carpet that he found the costume sexy.
  • In the weeks leading up to the party, Klum teased the concept with body and head casts plus tooth close-ups on Instagram, promising something “very ugly” and “super scary.”
  • Celebrities filled the guest list documented by photo agencies, including Bill Kaulitz arriving as Sailor Moon, as media recaps highlighted broad turnout.
