ESME YOUNG on how David Bowie inspired music-themed sewing challenges

- REBECCA FLETCHER

THE GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE

WEDNESDAY, 9PM, BBC1 REALITY

The late, great David Bowie was always ahead of the style curve, experimenting effortlessly with fashions such as mod, glam rock and New Romantic. So he's the perfect muse for a music-themed episode of The Great British Sewing Bee - especially as judge Esme Young once met the iconic singer-songwriter while perched on a windowsill watching London's Notting Hill Carnival!

'We chatted about what he was wearing!' smiles Esme, 73, founder of the 1970s Swanky Modes fashion label.

Here, in an exclusive interview, Esme tells us more about her star encounter and this week's stitches in time...

We’re excited about Music Week, Esme!

The idea is to show the connection between music and fashion. For musicians, clothes are another way of expressing themselves – think of David Bowie and Elton John!
