Jazzy Jacket! Years ago, I was browsing in an African store in Brooklyn, NY. I saw what I thought was a very unique piece of fabric hanging. I envisioned a very jazzy sports jacket. It turns out that the fabric was, in fact, a woman’s dress. I bought the dress, shipped it to Ian in LA, and told him to make me a jacket from that dress. He did. I wore it to an upscale reception in Harlem. An entertainer offered me $2500.00 for my jacket, but I did not want to sell it. It was truly unique. It no longer fits me, but it still hangs in my wardrobe. Now, it fits my son.
