Most of us look forward to dressing up for Halloween every year, but no one seems to embrace the madness quite like the wacky and fabulous Heidi Klum. While the majority of the population is heading to Party City for a ready-made Lady Gaga ensemble, Heidi is somewhere with Seal and their multiple kinder putting the finishing touches on another insanely original (and just generally insane) Halloween costume. And the Project Runway host, who has held her own star-studded Halloween party for the past decade, somehow manages to top herself each year with an even more elaborate costume than the last one. Who else, you ask, could make a giant biblical apple costume look remotely sexual? The answer, my friends, is no one.

With Heidi Klum’s hotly anticipated 12th annual Halloween bash just a few nights away, it’s worth taking a few moments to reflect on the Victoria’s Secret vet’s costume evolution. From her controversial Kali goddess garb to the possibly rabid cat catsuit, they’re all pretty out there. Kind of makes you wonder why “Design Heidi’s Halloween Costume” has never been a challenge on Project Runway? Dear Tim Gunn, if you’re reading this…

So which of Ms. Klum’s crazy costumes rocked your pumpkin intarsia patterned socks, and which ones should have been auf’d from the get-go?
