Marlow Moss studied at the Slade School of Fine Art from 1917 to 1919; she cut her hair short and started wearing men’s clothes. Moss moved to Paris in 1927 and studied at The Académie Moderne. In Paris she met another woman, Dutch writer Antoinette Hendrika Nijhoff-Wind who would become the love of her life.
