MINNEAPOLIS — Like what you see Lily Tomlin, Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda — and, soon, Harrison Ford — wearing on screen? Thank Minnetonka native Allyson Fanger.
Fresh off the Netflix series "Grace and Frankie," which earned the Hopkins High School graduate five Emmy nominations for putting Fonda in crisp suits and Tomlin in wearable art, Fanger tackled fashion icon Keaton in "Mack & Rita," which opens Friday. It's a be-careful-what-you-wish-for comedy in which thirtyish Mack (Elizabeth Lail), who longs to be older, transforms into Rita (Keaton).
"It was a short shoot but it was one of the most fun puzzles I've ever gotten to solve as a costume designer," said Fanger, who got her start in the '90s on Minnesota-lensed movies including "Untamed Heart" and who is currently at work on a Harrison Ford series for Apple TV+ called "Shrinking."
