texas first ladies historic costume collection at texas woman's university

Different exhibits of clothing. Recent exhibit of Bridal fashions from 1836 to present. Nice exhibition hall.

We had an afternoon free and opted for an hour in this collection of historic dresses and gowns. Yes, we dragged the teen-age boys with us too and everyone found something interesting.There's a lot of history presented along with beads and lace, since every Texas first lady and three U.S. presidents' wives are represented.A simple exhibit hall with displays behind glass, but you'll find the women who wore the gowns intriguing and want to know more about them when you leave.Lots of parking on campus. Just ask for directions from anyone if you get turned around.

I would like to say if your teenager is trying decide whether to go to college there it is a very safe and beautiful campus. The staff are very nice and help.
