Clothier's Guild
Clothiers belong to one of the largest guilds. Most of the population makes its own rags, but the wealthy middle class and the nobility will count a clothier’s products among their status symbols. Some noble households even have bonded master clothiers in their employ.
A master clothier knows the arts of the tailor, glover, draper, and haberdasher, although some masters specialize. Other specialties include those of dyer, weaver, and furrier. A typical clothier’s establishment may employ dozens of journeymen, apprentices, and bonded masters. Some clothiers also exploit the labor of a network of unguilded spinners and weavers in their town or on nearby manors.
