Heidi Klum returned to Halloween in full force on Oct. 31, 2026, unveiling a graphic, blinged-out severed-hand costume at her 25th Halloween Party in New York City. The look turned her latest costume reveal into the main event before the night had even settled in.
The party drew Kyle MacLachlan, Questlove, Andrew Rannells and Eric McCormack, making the New York City gathering as much a celebrity stop as a costume showcase. For Klum, the annual Halloween spectacle has become a signature part of her public identity, and this year she again used it to test how far the reveal could go.
That 25th-party label carries a wrinkle, though. The event is counted as a quarter-century milestone even though it skipped two years during COVID, leaving the number to reflect the party’s history rather than a straight run of uninterrupted celebrations. Even so, Klum’s arrival on Halloween night kept the focus where it usually lands: on the detail, the drama and the surprise.
The result was a familiar kind of dominance from Klum, who has spent years defending her crown as Halloween queen. The next unanswered question is not whether she will return to the holiday scene, but how she plans to outdo a severed hand that already set a high bar.
