What was the life of a chambermaid in medieval times?

Answer 1

A lady in waiting dressed well and often in finery. This was because she was not regarded as a servant, rather someone to entertain and keep the queen or noble woman happy. The woman would often wear a dress with long sleeves and a hair piece. The dress would be ankle-length.
