Amanda Gorman, an American poet.

American poet, Amanda Gorman has been featured on the cover of Vogue’s May;issue, making history as the first-ever poet to be on the magazine cover. Meanwhile

The fashion magazine made this known on their social media where they announced that she is their “May cover star”. Vogue further wrote: “Poet, activist, optimist, style icon — @amandascgorman has become so much more than a literary star”.

Virgil’s Kente design inspired by photo of his grandmother

The magazine has released two covers featuring Gorman and was shot by photographer Annie Leibovitz. In one of the covers, the inaugural poet is seen in an off-shoulder;bright green ‘kente’ gown with patterns in orange and red from Louis;Vuitton’s collection by the first black creative director at Louis Vuitton, Virgil Abloh.

The look is inspired by a portrait of Abloh’s maternal grandmother. He wrote on Instagram “This look from the last men’s LV show was inspired by this;photo my Ghanaian mom gave me of my grandmother, Madam Hellen Dei Ashie. All in all, the moral of the story is, everyone’s a writer, and the world makes more sense the more stories get told.”

He further wrote: “I grew up as a teenager seeing my dad wear kente cloth to occasions that were heightened experiences, and I had to grapple with how come my friends in America thought my dad was wearing something super foreign that they couldn’t relate to. What does that make me feel about my heritage? Do I highlight that or do I keep that within? The amazing power that fashion has is: Let’s take away the feeling of being shy about our personal heritage, just because it’s not pop culture. In turn, we can educate using a garment; we can educate using a selection to be on the Vogue cover.”

Amanda set to release two books

In an interview with Vogue, Gorman disclosed that in September, she will release two books which is a collection of her poetry: ‘The Hill We Climb and Other Poems’ and a kid’s picture book ‘Change Sings: A Children’s Anthem’.

More so, Gorman, who has expressed interest in running for office in the future, has spoken about the potency of using once’s voice as a political tool and her calling to do so. However, she told Vogue that her ambition comes with “complex feelings”.

“I’ve learned that it’s okay to be afraid. And what’s more, it’s okay to seek greatness. That does not make me a black hole seeking attention. It makes me a supernova”.

Gorman shot to fame following the powerful reading of her poem ‘The Hill We Climb’ at President Joe Biden’s inauguration in January.

She quickly signed with IMG models and graced the February cover of Time as well as made a series of public appearances, including an International Women’s Day panel with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and supermodel Chrissy Teigen.
