Heidi Klum's Halloween Costumes Over the Years

Even before the supermodel started to host her own epic Halloween parties, she was a regular on the New York City Halloween bash scene, attending a party in 2000 as a zombie doll.

Klum set the bar high dressing as a bloody, but clothed version of the legendary noblewoman for her first annual Halloween celebration – and she's been wowing Hollywood with her Halloween largess since.

Trading in her long blonde locks for a short dark 'do, the supermodel rocked a tight red dress as the cartoon sex symbol.

A fully-gilded Klum becomes the first extraterrestrial to earn the title "Sexiest Space Creature Alive."

Donning a short red dress and long red wig with bones sticking out of her costume created a wholly original, somewhat eclectic, look but, as always, Klum pulled it off with fabulous style.

The mom-of-four went for a more sexy interpretation sporting thigh-high boots, fangs and a big black Cher-like wig for her party.

The fruits of a slithering Klum's labor (she was 8 months pregnant!) that year included a getup featuring the apple from the Garden of Eden and platform snakeskin boots.

Meow! Her supermodel figure was on full display when she wore this skin-tight cat costume at her annual event.

When Klum decided to channel the Indian goddess, she went all out donning turquoise skin, lots of arms and a thick chain of skulls around her neck.

No one would ever call the Project Runway judge a birdbrain, except possibly when she flew into her annual party in a mini-skirt, fishnet-stockings and full-on black feathers.

The supermodel's costume was truly out of this world – she dressed up as a two-tone alien, complete with red-and-purple plastic armor and matching hair and skin!

For her Oct. 29 celebration, the dress-up enthusiast came as a dead body, showing off every muscle in her body. Two days later, she proved she wasn't monkeying around by donning an ape costume with then husband Seal.

Due to the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, Klum held her 2012 Halloween Party in December and raised money for the American Red Cross. "It took maybe three hours to put my face on and like ten minutes to get dressed," Klum told PEOPLE of the Cleopatra costume she wore to her Haunted Holiday Party in New York City. "The guy that designed the face made little pieces and put them on, and in between he had to fill in the gaps, so it took a very long time."

Are those varicose veins? Complete with a cane, the usually glamorous Klum attended her holiday bash in a spectacular granny getup, which she referred to as "little old me," in a Tweet.

Klum didn't disappoint as she transformed into a colorful insect for her annual bash (sponsored by Moto X and Svedka), where she proclaimed she's down with all things creepy crawly. "I have no problem with bugs and spiders or snakes and that kind of stuff. I like them," she said. She even gave fans a behind-the-scenes look at the costume in an Instagram video.

It took Klum nearly 10 hours to go from bare-faced to barely recognizable for her Svedka- and GSN's Hellevator-sponsored fete at N.Y.C.'s Lavo. The supermodel teased the whole process on Instagram, from prosthetic fittings (that had many fans guessing she'd be Kim Kardashian West) to the final makeup touches. All that was missing? Roger, of course!

It didn't take Klum long to get ready for her 2016 bash: she went as herself! However, she did document the transformation of her entourage of five Klum clones, from hair and nails to lashes and legs.

She's a Thriller! Klum promised that her 2017 Halloween costume would be "scary," and her hair-raising costume delivered on all fronts. Klum arrived at her annual Halloween party at Moxy Times Square in N.Y.C. wearing her version of the werewolf from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" music video, which premiered in 1982. She began getting ready for the party six hours before it even started.

Couples' costume alert! For Halloween 2018, Klum enlisted boyfriend Tom Kaulitz to be the Shrek to her Fiona for her annual bash at Lavo in N.Y.C.

The pair had another couple's costume moment in 2019, when Klum dressed up as a alien zombie and husband Tom Kaulitz was a bloodied astronaut who told PEOPLE he "was in space looking for a new planet for humans to live on" and "found" the creature (Klum) to "bring home."

In lieu of her annual party, the model dressed up for a short horror film that she debuted on Instagram Oct. 29. Klum played a zombie mom who rose from the dead after being killed by her mummy and zombie children in the first installment of the film (which she released in 2020 amid the ongoing pandemic).
