Leni Klum was covered in multicoloured stripes as she transformed into an American storybook character for her mum Heidi’s legendary Halloween bash.
The German-American model, 21, is the daughter of Heidi Klum and Flavio Briatore and the adopted daughter of singer Seal.
Leni mum Heidi is known for her love of Halloween and each year transforms into an iconic character for her annual star-studded party in New York on Friday.
This year, Leni went all out at her mum’s bash, dressing as Camilla Cream, a character from US children’s book A Bad Case of Stripes – which sees her wake up covered in multicoloured stripes.
Dressed as Camille, Leni was seen posing alongside her mum – who had transformed into the 1981 movie Clash of the Titans version of Medusa.
Leni got into character with her skin painted head-to-toe in rainbow stripes, as well as sporting a black curly wig with a pink bow attached.

She also wore a white lace pyjama set and a pair of fluffy slipper boots, while holding the book featuring the character in the exact look on the cover.
The story tells the tale of how Camille gives up her favourite snack, lima beans, because she wants to fit in and others don’t like them – but sacrificing her own enjoyment makes her ill and causes the stripes.
Because of this, Camille sports very sad thin eyebrows to indicate her upset – which Leni also painted onto her face.
It comes after Leni and Heidi silenced critics who had deemed a previous lingerie campaign ‘inappropriate’ by posing for a new campaign with the beloved underwear brand Intimissimi.
The model, 52, previously hit back at criticism towards her joint shoots with her daughter insisting she’s ‘proud’ they get to pose together.
In their latest ad, which was posted on Leni’s Instagram, she and Heidi were dressed in matching cashmere knitwear.
The pair showed off their incredible figures while appearing in the video together, with Heidi dressed in a pale cream jumper while Leni opted for a dark brown shade.
Leni captioned the Instagram post: ‘I live in these super soft and cosy @intimissimi shirts! My new campaign with my mom @heidiklum for the iconic Ultralight with Cashmere shirts!’

Heidi and Leni sparked backlash when they posed for a string of lingerie campaigns together earlier this year, with some branding the images ‘inappropriate’ or ‘weird.’
But the Project Runway star has hit back at the criticism, telling People: ‘A lot of people are like, “Oh, I don’t know about mom and daughter doing this together.”‘
‘But for us? I’m proud of my daughter. She’s fine with me like that.’
Heidi also made it clear that body confidence runs in the family, noting that she’s always been comfortable in her own skin.
‘I’ve always been very open with my body,’ she added.
‘When I’m suntanning in the backyard, I might not have a top on. I’m European… my kids don’t know me any other way.’
While some critics have labelled the mother-daughter shoots as ‘inappropriate’, Heidi says her family simply doesn’t view nudity through a hypersexualized lens.
In fact, she believes that openness has helped her children become more self-assured.

Heidi and Leni have fronted several campaigns together, including a lingerie basics collection earlier this year and a cosy cashmere shoot in 2023 that also featured Heidi’s mother, 80-year-old Erna Klum.
Leni, Heidi’s daughter with Italian businessman Flavio Briatore, was adopted by Seal during his marriage to Heidi.
Although Leni was offered modeling gigs throughout her childhood, Heidi held off on allowing her to enter the industry until she felt her daughter was ready.
Leni officially began modeling in 2020.
