Paloma Elsesser keeps making history. She recently was awarded Model of the Year at The British Fashion Awards. But, according to Elsesser, she actually hoped she wouldn't win. "I had been making silent pleas not to win," she admitted in a personal essay published by The Cut. Win she did and managed to put together a truly inspiring speech pretty much on the fly. "I feel very honored and very shocked, but I'm also predominantly honored because I'm the first curve model to win this award."
