In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Klum shared a sneak peek of a video of what’s presumably her costume for her [legendary annual Halloween party](http://time.com/5004265/heidi-klum-halloween-costumes-2017/). In the clip, a prosthetic mold is being made by Prosthetic Renaissance Inc., who Klum has worked with in the past to create some her most over-the-top looks like transforming herself into a larger-than-life Jessica Rabbit or making duplicates of herself. While the costume itself remains a mystery, the prosthetics appear to be covering the mold’s bottom-half of their face and their décolletage, leaving potential for a full body prosthetic costume. Klum’s Halloween party has become the hottest ticket in town for the holiday, with celebrities going all out with their costumes to keep up with Klum; guests in the past have included Gigi Hadid, Chrissy Teigen, and Kyle McLaughlin. See Klum’s preparation for this year below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5406944/heidi-klum-halloween-instagram-2018/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5406944/heidi-klum-halloween-instagram-2018/"},"headline":"Heidi Klum Is Already Readying Herself for Halloween and the Plan Looks Intense","datePublished":"2018-09-26T16:07:21.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:55:06.804Z","description":"Don't try this at home","url":"https://time.com/5406944/heidi-klum-halloween-instagram-2018/","keywords":["Newsfeed","halloween"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt35d1312ae998df14/69893b2522fb85ce09e26c05/heidi-klum-halloween-2018.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt35d1312ae998df14/69893b2522fb85ce09e26c05/heidi-klum-halloween-2018.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"America's Got Talent\" Season 13 Finale Live Show Red Carpet","caption":"\"America's Got Talent\" Season 13 Finale Live Show Red Carpet","creditText":"Gabriel Olsen—FilmMagic","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5406944/heidi-klum-halloween-instagram-2018/","name":"Heidi Klum Is Already Readying Herself for Halloween and the Plan Looks Intense"}}]}] ```
