NEED TO KNOW

• Hilton posted the Beauty and the Beast family shoot on Instagram on Oct. 26, 2026, ahead of Halloween.
• Hilton wore a custom yellow Belle gown by designer Danyul Brown, while husband Carter Reum played the Beast.
• Son Phoenix, 3, dressed as Lumière and daughter London, 2, as a tea-set character; Phoenix reportedly called the gown a “tent.”

In the portrait, a towering Beast in a navy coat kneels at the edge of a candlelit set. One furry paw rests on a sea of gold satin.

Above him, Paris Hilton stands as Belle, one gloved hand tilting her chin toward the camera. Red velvet curtains hang behind her, with candles on a side table and cobwebs strung across the top corner.

Two toddlers stand in front of the skirt. The boy wears a white cap topped with a candle flame. The girl wears a lilac bow and a pastel tiered skirt, and neither looks fully convinced by the fairy tale around them.

Hilton shared the carousel on Monday, Oct. 26, 2026. Reum wore the Beast costume. Their son Phoenix, 3, was Lumière, and their daughter London, 2, played a character from the Beast’s enchanted tea set.

The shoot is the latest entry in a yearly tradition. Hilton and Reum have coordinated family Halloween looks since Phoenix’s first Halloween in 2023, including Peter Pan in 2025.

Here’s everything to know about the Beauty and the Beast costumes, who wore what, and how fans reacted.

Her gold Belle gown was custom-made by Danyul Brown

Hilton’s yellow ballgown was custom-made by designer Danyul Brown and accented with roses, according to reports on the post. She wore a brunette wig for the look.

The photo shows an off-the-shoulder gold satin bodice with lace appliqué and a voluminous, layered skirt that spills across the floor. Long matching gloves and a high lace choker complete the outfit.

Reports also note dazzling earrings and rings worn over her gloves. Hilton’s pose, with her chin resting on one hand, is the only moment in the frame where anyone looks directly at the camera with intent.

Reum became the Beast while Phoenix and London took supporting roles

Reum wore a full Beast mask, fuzzy gloves and the character’s blue suit. In the image, the costume includes a shaggy mane, curved horns, gold-trimmed epaulets, a tan waistcoat and furry boots.

Phoenix stands at the left in a gold tailcoat with a white ruffled cravat. His white cap carries a candle flame, matching Lumière’s look.

Reports differ on London’s character. Some outlets say she was Mrs. Potts, while others say Chip. In the photo, her bodice carries a teacup face above a tiered skirt in lilac, pink and teal.

Fans split over whether the toddlers were overshadowed

Reaction on X was divided, according to a UNILAD report. One poster wrote, “Her poor kids are just side characters.”

Others described the children’s outfits as an afterthought. Supporters said they look forward to Hilton’s costumes every year.

The Hilton-Reum family has turned Halloween into an annual theme shoot

Last year, the family dressed as characters from Peter Pan. Hilton was Tinker Bell, Reum was Captain Hook, Phoenix was Peter Pan and London was Wendy Darling. Hilton also posted a Toy Story set in which she played Little Bo Peep.

That same week, she wore two looks inspired by Britney Spears.

In 2024, the family dressed in Wizard of Oz costumes, with Reum as the Wizard, London as Dorothy and Phoenix as a Munchkin. They also did a Rainbow Brite-inspired shoot.

Phoenix’s first Halloween, in 2023, was a Katy Perry-inspired mushroom look. Hilton captioned that post “A full family concert.”
