Leni Klum, daughter of renowned supermodel Heidi Klum, made a splash at her mother’s 25th Annual Halloween Party on October 31, 2026, held at Cathédrale in New York City. This year, Leni opted for a classic costume, stepping out in style as Miss Piggy, the beloved character from The Muppet Show.

In a brief interview on the red carpet, the 22-year-old model had the chance to reflect on her mother’s legacy of extravagant Halloween costumes. Known for her creative flair, Heidi has wowed guests for years with increasingly elaborate outfits, including her memorable worm costume from last year. When asked if she would consider taking over the iconic Halloween bash in the future, Leni responded candidly.
“I don’t think anyone can fill her shoes at all when it comes to Halloween,” Leni stated, expressing her admiration for her mother’s creativity. “I just love coming, and I love dressing up. I love seeing her costume in person. She does better and better every single year, which I didn’t even think is possible.”
Leni’s comment on her mother’s costumes reinforced a sentiment shared among many of the party attendees. The bar has been set high, particularly following the elaborate worm design from 2022, which left Leni wondering how her mother would manage to top it. “After I saw the worm, I was like, ‘How are you going to top this?’ And then that just continued,” she shared, showing deep respect for Heidi’s artistry.
The famous family is not just made up of Leni. Heidi Klum, who shares children with ex-husband Seal, is also the mother to daughter Lou, 17, and sons Henry, 21, and Johan, 19. Interestingly, Leni was officially adopted by Seal in 2009, fostering a strong bond between the children and their mother.
Although Leni has turned down the idea of taking over the Halloween festivities, she has demonstrated her own talent for costume design in recent years. Last Halloween, she donned a whimsical outfit inspired by the children’s book, “A Bad Case of Stripes” by David Shannon. Dressing as Camilla Cream, the story’s protagonist, Leni’s costume featured intricate body paint that mimicked the character’s rainbow stripes. She completed the look with a wig and an outfit that paid homage to Camilla’s signature appearance.
Looking ahead, Leni has revealed that she already has her Halloween plans set for 2027. “I already know what I’m doing next year, which is such a blessing,” she mentioned in a previous interview, highlighting how difficult it can be to finalise such a creative concept. “Sometimes the pressure’s on, and I’m like, ‘I don’t know, I don’t know,’” she added, clearly relieved to have her costume sorted out in advance.
Despite the pressure that comes with Halloween costume planning, Leni is clearly embracing her mother’s tradition, finding joy in the festive spirit and creativity that surrounds the event. As she continues to join the family in celebrating this annual gathering, her admiration for Heidi’s imaginative spirit shines through.
Heidi Klum’s Halloween parties have become synonymous with glamour and creativity, drawing attention from both fans and celebrities alike. With each passing year, they set a high standard for Halloween festivities, showcasing that the holiday can be an avenue for artistic expression and family bonding. Leni’s presence and growing involvement in the event only further highlight the joyful legacy Heidi has built over decades.
As the countdown to next Halloween begins, all eyes will be on the mother-daughter duo, waiting to see which dazzling costumes they will unveil next. For now, however, the night remains one of celebration and creativity, as Leni and Heidi Klum continue to honour the spirit of Halloween together.
