A seamstress (woman) living in medieval times would have been paid much less than a man, though would often work as hard or harder than men did. This time period was a difficult one for women, as they were treated poorly and unfairly.

The Anglo-Norman French verb tailler or tailliermeans to cut, particularly to cut up material for garments. A tailor was therefore someone who made clothes by cutting up cloth and stitching together the pieces; the finished garments included men's tunics and women's dresses.

The phrase "D'eskarlete out vestu gunele bien taillee" occurs in "The Romance of Horn" written in England in 1170; it means "dressed in rich material with a well-tailored gown".

The very best clothes were made of expensive wool, linen or silk dyed in bright colours, while less expensive clothes were made of coarser woollen cloth.
