Though Katy Perry has pretty much already clinched this year’s top honors for best Halloween costume of 2016 with her likeness of Hillary Rodham Clinton, we’re still more than a little curious about what kind of stops Heidi Klum might pull to try to top her at her annual Halloween bash Monday night (have you SEEN last year’s Jessica Rabbit transformation or her technicolor butterfly?).

Teasing this snap from her “first fitting” several weeks ago and giving us an up close and personal look at her outfit, Heidi all but gave us a floor plan for her ensemble, but still, we’re seriously scratching our heads.

Adding to the confusion is ET’s report that this year’s look will NOT be from outer space, as you might have guessed from the photo. “It’s going to be a German theme,” she said. “It’s going to be made in Germany.” Say what?

Knowing how detailed Heidi gets with her costumes, we’ve got a sneaking suspicion this will look totally different by the time Monday night rolls around, but we’re totally clueless about what could LOOK sci-fi as all get out and hail from Germany: This certainly doesn’t look like any dirndl we’ve ever seen!

Seriously, we’re stumped. You’re killing us, Heids!

Do you have Heidi’s costume figured out yet? Clue us in @BritandCo.
