'To the Stars' cast really enjoyed taking selfies in '60s undergarments, reveals costume designer Kiersten Hargroder

Talking to MEA WorldWide. Hargroder said she found inspiration for the vintage costumes used in the movie in her mother's yearbooks.

If you're looking for a niche coming-of-age drama to watch this year, look no further than Martha Stephens' 'To the Stars.' Having premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 25, the movie is the story of friendship between reclusive teen Iris (Kara Hayward) and reckless girl Maggie (Liana Liberato), who has newly moved to her small town in 1961.

The script written by Shannon Bradley-Colleary is brought to life by the beautiful acting of Shea Whigham, Malin Akerman, Hayward, Jordana Spiro, Liberato, Tony Hale, Adelaide Clemens and Madisen Beaty among others, but what gave it authenticity was costume designer Kiersten Hargroder, who found the inspiration for the period piece in her own mother.
