Forget fashion week, the Academy Awards and the Met Gala – the most important night on the showbiz calendar is Halloween.

All Hallows’ Eve sees the celebs battle it out in the fancy dress fashion stakes as they take on the mantra: “Go big or go home."

Reality star Kim Kardashian always rakes in the likes on social media with her conventional Halloween get-ups from Wonder Woman to a mermaid – and who can forget her transformation into fashion powerhouse, Anna Wintour?

Katy Perry often shuns the ghouls and gore in favour of the mundane from a giant Cheeto to a microphone, while stars including Rihanna, Poppy Delevingne and David Walliams have previously turned to the big screen for inspiration.

Model Gigi Hadid gave chills that were multiplying when she channelled Sandy from Grease, Jason Biggs once worked his best Dorothy while Jemima Khan trumped Halloween at a party earlier this month when she transformed into Melania Trump, complete with a ‘groping’ Donald on her back.

But all eyes will be on Heidi Klum, whose spectacular Halloween outfits always go above and beyond the call of duty.

From playing the part of an old woman, transforming into a crow, spending six hours in make-up to become a monkey and donning prosthetics for Jessica Rabbit, the former supermodel will be one to watch this weekend.
