Amanda Gorman, an American poet, “is the latest to become a household name, but in her short time in the spotlight, she’s cultivated a look powerful enough to match her words,” Vogue stated. Looking back in January, Gorman can be most recognized for reading the poem “The Hill We Climb” while wearing a bold outfit at the 2021 inauguration. Specifically, she wore a yellow Prada coat with a Prada red satin headband.
