Dame d'atour (French pronunciation: [dam datuʁ] ⓘ) was an office at the royal court of France.
The dame d'honneur was selected from the members of the highest French nobility.
At least from Isabeau of Bavaria's tenure as queen, there had been a post named demoiselle d'atour or femme d'atour, but this had originally been the title of the queen's chambermaids and shared by several people.
[1] The office of dame d'atour, created in 1534, was one of the highest-ranking offices among the ladies-in-waiting of the queen and given only to members of the nobility.
[2] The dame d'atour was responsible for the queen's wardrobe and jewelry and supervised the dressing of the queen and the chamber staff of femme du chambre.
