Annette Becker, Director at the Texas Fashion Collection

Season 12 Episode 1205 | 26m 46s

The Texas Fashion Collection began in 1938 when Stanley and Edward Marcus preserved examples of top designers' works in honor of Carrie Marcus Neiman. These artifacts became part of a continuing collection housed at UNT. Annette Becker, director of the 20,000-piece collection, gives us a privileged look inside a few of these distinguished garments.
