History

The ironborn of old would abduct seamstresses, scullions, cooks, weavers, midwives, and the like during their reaving.[1]

The finest dressmakers of King's Landing sought the honor of making gowns for Lady Rhaena Targaryen.[2]

Jorah Mormont, Lord of Bear Island, found goldsmiths, jewelers, and dressmakers in his efforts to keep his wife Lynesse in the expensive life to which she was accustomed.[3]

Queen Cersei Lannister has honored an old seamstress in King's Landing with her custom for many years.[4]
