[Photograph of Marianne Moore]
Marianne Moore adopted a tricorne hat and cape as her uniform in 1952. Elizabeth Bishop, whom Moore mentored when Bishop was first starting out as a poet, said that Moore looked like a “a feminine, luminescent, delicate re-incarnation of Paul Revere” in the outfit (Bishop to Moore, July 16, 1954).
