Paloma Elsesser Will Always Have the Last Laugh

Leave it to New Super Paloma Elsesser to turn our cover story into a masterclass in comedic timing. Directed by Columbine Goldsmith, this satirical piece puts the “super” in supermodel as Elsesser embodies her role as A Serious Woman. Known for her sharp wit and irrefutable resume, Elsesser has been a leader in rewriting the rules of ‘sample size’ whether she’s serving high fashion or side-splitting quips. It’s a rare feat—commanding the lens while slyly winking at the industry—but leave it to this one to have us questioning if the joke’s on her or on us. (Spoiler: it’s both.) Iconic and satirical? Paloma is everything. The New Super links with Models.com in Paris to prove once again that you can laugh all the way to the top.
