Episode 8
The quarter-final sees the five remaining sewers make garments inspired by history's most influential fashion Icons.
For the Pattern Challenge, judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young draw on old-time Hollywood glamour with a dress reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn's little black dress in Breakfast at Tiffany's – a garment that demands a tight-fitting bodice and elegant cut.
The Transformation Challenge is inspired by the Sewing Bee's very own fashion icon, Esme Young, and her work with fashion label Swanky Modes, specifically their range of clothes made from shower curtains, shot by legendary fashion photographer Helmut Newton for Nova magazine.
Finally, in the Made-to-Measure Challenge, it's an all-male affair as the sewers have been asked to make smoking jackets. This tailoring test is combined with tricky-to-handle fabrics alongside the added pressure of creating a perfect fit for their model. Who will secure icon status and win Garment of the Week, and who will be a fashion fail?
