Kenrick Ice McDonald world renown Magician purchased my coat in the eighties. I still remember getting a phone call from Dynamite Boutique asking if I could make a coat in purple with some very specific measurements. It was my first taste in the hard core specifics that a magician demands in their garments. I had not met Ice McDonald but I remember seeing his picture on the wall of the clothing store shortly after I delivered his coat to the store. Years and years later I stumbled upon a the cover of The Linking Ring, M.U.M. and Preview. All of which featured the imposing Ice McDonald decked out in purple denim.
I sent him an email and was fortunate to be invited to attend his show at the Magic Castle. It was such a treat.  If you ever get the chance to see him go.
