A place in the quarter-final is on the line this week as the sewers tackle three challenges inspired by art.\n\nIn the Pattern Challenge, the sewers are tasked with creating a baby-doll dress, taking inspiration from Turner Prize-winning potter Grayson Perry, whose distinctive aesthetic sets the tone.\n\nNext, in the Transformation Challenge, the sewers work with used painter’s overalls, which they must turn into an asymmetric outfit, showcasing their creativity and resourcefulness.\n\nFinally, in the Made to Measure Challenge, the sewers embrace the bold colours and shapes of pop art. Drawing inspiration from the postwar art movement led by Andy Warhol, they create stunning garments that capture the essence of this iconic style.\n\nWho will secure their spot in the quarter-final, and who will fall short?
