Heidi Klum Wins Halloween 2023 Dressed as a Giant Peacock
It reportedly took six hours to do the makeup.
The Queen of Halloween has kept her throne.
After much suspense, Heidi Klum revealed her 2023 Halloween costume dressed as a giant peacock for her annual Halloween party. During her grand entrance, Klum is donned in an all-blue bodysuit while her neck and face have the prosthetics of a peacock. Meanwhile, 10 other people around her are dressed in an ombrè of gold, green, and blue stand around her that together create the giant tail feathers.
“I feel very naked right now,” she told Page Six. “I need all my friends around me. I thought it would be fun to do a costume with a bunch of people … where we all make amazing formations.”
And as if the costume wasn't grand enough, her husband Tom Kaulitz walked the carpet as a giant egg. Her daughter, Leni Klum, opted to dress differently from her parents and go as a sexy Strawberry Shortcake.
As one of the most highly anticipated events of the year — and the biggest annual Halloween party — it was certainly a star-studded affair. Other celebrity guests included Rachel Zegler, H.E.R., Taylor Lautner, Camila Cabello, Becky G, Alix Earle, and Amanda Lepore.
Leading up to the big reveal, Klum dropped cryptic hints as to what she was going to be this year. While a guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Klum gave sly insight, spilling extremely limited details.
When asked if she can hint at what her costume is, Klum responded, "No, because I always like it to be a surprise. Otherwise, people are like, 'Oh, she's gonna be this,' and then I show up and they say 'eh, it wasn't as good as I thought she was gonna do.'"
She did give one small, or big, detail: "It's gonna be gigantic," Klum told Fallon. "And I have to close a few streets down here in Manhattan—which is very hard to do, by the way!"
Klum also teased about her costume on Instagram. Firstly with a post of her lying nude on the couch with a large painting hung above her. The caption read, "The Calm before the storm. 3 days to #heidihalloween2023. My motto this Halloween, GO BIG OR GO HOME."
The night before her party, she then posted herself in the middle of putting on prosthetics, though it was still very unclear what she was supposed to be.
Every year Klum's Halloween costumes are the most talked about outfits of the night. Last year Klum raised the bar against herself when dressed as a human-size worm. The intense look left her looking completely unrecognizable, with nothing more than her mouth and eyes left to be revealed.
The costume came after Klum took a two-year pause from her annual Halloween party due to the pandemic. Now that she's back and more grandiose than ever, we're left questioning what Klum will dress up as next year.
