When it comes to nailing down Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren’s looks for the hit show "1923," Emmy Award-winning costume designer Janie Bryant has got it covered. During an interview with Fox News Digital, Bryant detailed what it was like creating a historic look for Ford and Mirren’s characters -- married couple Cara and Jacob Dutton. "I'll never forget, I had my first fitting with [Ford] and he was like, ‘Janie, do you have a three-way mirror?’ I said, ‘Of course, Harrison … let me show you.
Step right here,’" she began to explain. "He looks at himself in the mirror, has the hat on, the jacket, the chaps on. He puts his hands in his coat and he's like, ‘Well, what can I tell you? This is f---ing perfect.’" The "1923" costume designer admitted she had to create nearly 50 hats for Ford until he found the right one for his character, Jacob.
"The cowboy hat is an extension, an expression of who they are," Bryant explained. "One of the things that I talked to Harrison about was … he knows the importance of a hat … the certain style of [a] hat makes you famous, right? … Think about Indiana Jones and the fedora," she said, referring to another one of Ford’s popular movie roles. Fifty hats later, Bryant dished on how critical it was to provide Ford with the right accessory for the "Yellowstone" spinoff, "1923." "This hat … for Jacob Dutton felt as important as any of those other characters created on screen," she continued. "I talked to Harrison a lot about [how] I feel like Jacob Dutton really must have the Montana peak crease … so that is the hat that he ended up with, and I named it ‘The Jacob.’" As for Mirren’s character, Bryant went on to say how she and Ford are both "total" professionals to work with.
