Maîtresses marchandes lingères was a French guild organisation for women linen draper seamstresses and hemp merchants within the city of Paris, active from the Middle Ages until 1791.
It was one of only three guilds open to women in Paris prior to 1776, the other two being the Maitresses bouquetieres and the Maîtresses couturières.
They manufactured all sorts of products made of linen, on and off commission.
In accordance with the privileges of the guild, a linen seamstress did not become a minor under the guardianship of her husband when she married, which was an exception from contemporary law of married women's minority.
Paris was rare in having an actual guild for seamstresses, and it was further increased with the Maîtresses couturières of 1675 and the Marchandes de modes of 1776.
