It seemed that Spanish Television had given the green light to a new season of Sewing Masters. A few weeks ago, Raquel Sánchez Silva, its presenter, shared a photo on Instagram in which she spoke that "you have to prepare for Sewing Masters", implying that the program will return to our television next season.

Who better than the mistress of ceremonies of the contest to give such news. Raquel Sánchez Silva is one of the keys to the success of this contest. She handles the codes of this type of program like nobody else, she knows how to give a unique emotion to the format and, at the same time, she is a fashion lover who enjoys every fitting and every guest designer.

However, the days passed and Spanish Television did not let go of a renewal of the talent show. There are no phones to call, no face-to-face castings to attend. Any.

Vertele sounded the alarm shortly after: TVE had not given the green light to the fifth season. This Tuesday, María Escoté, one of the experts in charge of judging the designs of the applicants together with Lorenzo Caprile and Alejandro Palomo, regretted this delay. “It would be a shame not to be able to enjoy sewing and fashion for another season. How nice it is to learn from this wonderful profession! and what we enjoy it”, indicated the designer.

While the renewal (or cancellation of the format) is confirmed, we are going to review five reasons why the program should return to our screens in the next television course, which will start in just two weeks.

Because it is a great brand for Spanish Television

Along with MasterChef, Sewing Masters is one of the emblems of public television. One of those formats that provides a good image, that helps people improve themselves while fulfilling their dreams.

It is a high-quality product, which comes from the hand of Shine Iberia, a production company that already demonstrates its good hand every year with the different editions of MasterChef. Every week they offer a fun and exciting program, which allows the viewer to fall in love with both the contestants and their work.

For its deferred consumption

Beyond the linear data, it should be noted that Sewing Masters is one of the Spanish Television programs that is most consumed on a delayed basis. You don't have to stay with the usual audiences, you have to go one step further and analyze new consumption.

We are talking about a model of watching television to which we must pay close attention in the present, and more so, when payment platforms are in thousands and thousands of homes.

For his commitment to fashion

There are many talent shows on television, but the range of disciplines they cover is limited. There are programs where anything goes, like Got talent, others focused on singing, like La voz. Cooking and pastries also have their place in formats such as MasterChef, or even in drag art, which has found its place in Drag Race Spain.

However, Sewing Masters is the only one that serves as a window to the promises of this sector. The program also manages to make design, fashion and clothing entertaining for any viewer who approaches it, regardless of their knowledge or level.

In the same way, it also serves as a showcase for all our national designers, whose work does not usually steal many minutes on television.

In times of coronavirus, TVE's commitment to Sewing Masters is more important than ever, as the sector is going through a major bump. Without catwalks, without red carpets, almost without social and family events, fashion needs that boost from the public so as not to sink completely.

“We are pioneers in the exploitation of Spanish brands and Spanish fashion is a benchmark in the whole world”, explained the presenter Raquel Sánchez Silva during the introduction of the first program, back in 2018. And we must try to keep it that way, thanks to bets like this program.

Because it is a song to diversity

Since its first year, Masters of Sewing has had a very good casting, although sometimes its applicants fail when executing the works, to the despair of Thursdays -and sometimes also for the viewer-.

That said, the contest has been a great showcase for diversity. It accommodates all kinds of contestants in terms of gender identity and sexual orientation, with disabilities, with particular illnesses such as Ana from MDLC4, who had excessive sweating on her hands.

It is an inspiring program for everyone who does not have it easy. Let us remember, for example, how Rosa won the second season after overcoming breast cancer. She acknowledged that she looked forward to the first year, when she received chemotherapy treatment, and showed that being over 50 is not an inconvenience to win a contest of these characteristics.

On the other hand, stories like that of Yelimar, who lost a leg in an accident, are very motivating, especially when we saw her reach the final program with a good chance of winning the gold mannequin.

For her transversal messages to make the world a better place

Sewing Masters have very valuable messages in each of their programs. Through their tests, apprentices have been made aware of the importance of not wasting fabrics, but not only that.

We have had tests in which the fabrics were recycled, and they talked to us about how we should all stop the generation of waste. Likewise, they have advocated the reuse of garments, to give a new air to those pieces that are in the closet and that are no longer used because they are outdated. In short, they have enhanced sustainability within the sector.

They have also exposed us that going to buy something as everyday as underwear can be complicated for transsexual people, and that "clothes have no gender, clothes belong to whoever wants to buy them", as Lorenzo Caprile said.

Finally, we can highlight that the program has had very competitive people like Lluís, from the last edition. But also that you can be competitive and also a good colleague, like Yelimar, who the day he had the power to subtract 15 minutes of sewing from a colleague chose the one who could not be expelled, instead of taking revenge on the aforementioned Lluís, who had spoken bad of her
