LSU Textile & Costume Museum

Our mission is to preserve fashion and textile artifacts according to four priorities: American fashion, women fashion designers, LSU histories, and Louisiana histories. We support and enrich the Department of Textiles, Apparel Design, & Merchandising's academic programs and the greater LSU community of scholars. As the only R1 institution in the southeast offering MS and Ph.D. degrees in historical/cultural aspects of dress, we train future academics, researchers, and museum professionals to pursue engaging careers related to fashion and textiles' comprehensive history and culture. Importantly, TCM is a conduit connecting students, faculty, staff, alumni, and others across the state through engaging exhibitions, research, and public programming. TCM collects exceptional fashion and textile items with a focus on designer pieces that are in excellent condition.
