Episode 8

It鈥檚 Week 8, and the remaining sewers celebrate the diva with a fringed dress, animal print and a stage outfit for their favourite performer.

The quarter-final sees the five remaining sewers make garments inspired by divas past and present. From Elton to Mariah, this week鈥檚 theme is most definitely fabulous.

For the Pattern Challenge, judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young take Tina Turner鈥檚 iconic fringed dress as inspiration and challenge the sewers to create their own versions with multiple layers of fringing.

The Transformation Challenge envisages the diva on their day off, still fabulous but this time slipping into something more comfortable in animal print.

Finally, in the Made to Measure, the sewers get to choose a stage outfit for their favourite diva. From Beyonc茅 to Lady Gaga, the sewers have all bases covered when it comes to stage presence.
