Heidi Klum’s Halloween Costumes Are Legendary – Jessica Rabbit? The worms?! – and we’re so excited to see what she comes up with this year. So it’s more than a little surprising that the Queen of Halloween herself admits she’s not the best in suits. Instead, she gives that title to her 15-year-old daughter, Lou! Klum revealed that her youngest daughter is “more talented” than she is at making Halloween costumes, and we’re impressed.
The supermodel, who shares Lou, Johan, 17, Henry, 19, and Lenny, 20, with ex-husband Seal, told PEOPLE on Oct. 29 that her kids “have their own ideas” about how to dress for the big day. And Lou is the most dedicated.

“I mean, especially Lou.” She’s doing her own thing,” Klum told the publication. “She’s also very into anime. She makes all the wigs herself, like all the pink ones… so she does everything herself. She is quite talented, I must say, more talented than I am when it comes to building things.
How amazing is that? Klum went into more detail about the work Lou puts into her costumes each year. “She buys all the accessories and then puts on a little mask, like a real fit,” Klum continued. “She [wears the mask] when she’s grinding things and building things so she doesn’t inhale all the dust. She does it right. If anyone has the main problem with dressing up and stuff, it’s going to be my Lou.
The America has talent The judge herself has a whole team helping her prepare for hours on October 31. She told USA TODAY this morning that her costume will “take a hot minute” to prepare. She plans to start getting ready at 11am and finish by 9pm for the red carpet for her annual bash tonight.
“I start almost the next day (after Halloween the year before) … racking my brain,” she told USA TODAY. “Why do people get it two days before? It’s hard.”

That’s dedication! It’s no surprise that one of her children has been bitten by the costume-making bug if they see their mother preparing for the holiday all year long. And if you’re wondering what she’ll be wearing tonight, SheKnows has a few clues.
“It’s a couple suit, it’s unusual and I’m not very tall,” Klum said in an interview with Us earlier this month. She and husband Tom Kaulitz rocked a gorgeous peacock and egg last year, so we can only imagine what couple’s costume she has in mind this year. It will be great!
These celebrity parents are raising strong, resilient daughters.
