The type of figurative language used in the initial line and the one following it in the poem "November" by Alice Cary is Personification.
There are other figurative languages such as Hyperbole, Onomatopeia, and Simile. None of them properly matches the type of literary device which was used in those lines.
The first and second line of that poem reads thus:
"The robin will wear on his bosom"
"a vest that is bright and new"
Ideally, only human beings wear vests. When actions that typically relate to human activities are used on a non-human noun, then personification has been used.
Another example of personification is:
The cat danced and smiled like it was listening to jazz music.
