• MomenTVs Lluís wins Masters of Sewing 5 in a historic final with 'shit' included

It was not "divine justice", nor was the briefcase of

Masters of Sewing 4

"stolen" .

Now, already proclaimed the undisputed winner of

Masters of Sewing 5

,

Lluís Mengual

acknowledges that there is nothing "divine justice", that second place in his first edition was just as good and that last night's victory in

Masters of Sewing 5

was " wonderful", but that if he had been second again he wouldn't have cared.

The other, the "robbery", is the

sarcastic

Lluís .

The

Lluís

who appreciates everything that

Masters of Sewing

has given him is the winner.

Of all the aspiring

Masters of Sewing 5

,

Lluís Mengual

has been the most hermetic.

Hidden in his sarcasm, in his irony and in his black humor, he surprised us in this edition with a much more serious

Lluís

, more focused and less worried about getting involved in discussions that never lead anywhere.

However, the armor of

Lluís Mengual

is not easy to break through.

Who is

Lluís Mengual

?

Are there two Lluís, as the judges of

Masters of Sewing used to

say ?

Two finals, in two editions in a row and a victory, do you think that divine justice has finally been done to you?


Well, I don't know if it's justice or not, what I know is that I'm the winner.

I was first because it had to happen and I was second in the previous edition because it had to happen.

The robbery and justice thing was a joke I played with the judges because I am a joker and very sarcastic.

The other time I was second and this time it happened like that.

Second place was also good and that was enough for me.

I never thought I would go that far, nor did I go back thinking only of getting the first place

that I didn't get the other time.

If I had been second, it would have been just as good.


When they offered you to participate again in

Masters of Sewing

What was the first thing you thought of and what led you to accept again?


Well, they called me and I thought that what they wanted was for me to be a guest on a program in this edition.

I told them yes, how delighted.

I did not understand that they wanted me to enter again and participate again.

When I was aware I said

'what madness!'

.

He was freaked out.

I accepted because of the experience and because I thought I wouldn't be bad at it.

And I thought about the train that when it comes to you you can't miss it.

And I thought about trying the experience again, for the people who follow me, for my clients and because

Masters of Sewing

were the ones who gave me visibility and in this life you have to be grateful.

It was a good thing.


If the judges have highlighted something about you in this fifth edition, it has been your change of attitude.

Do you really think there has been so much change?

And do you think that if Lluís de

Maestros de la Costura 4

had been like Lluís de

Maestros de la Costura 5,

you would have won then?


I don't know what change of attitude they are talking about.

I was still more serious because now I have my clients, more responsibilities, but

Lluís

de

Maestros de la Costura 4

and

Lluís

de

Maestros de la Costura 5

are the same person.

The two

Luis

They are equal.

I have never tried to change for anyone for anything.

I am as I am with my defects and with my virtues.

I love not being liked, just as I love being liked.

The only thing that I always keep in mind and that I have been clear about is that I did not want to disrespect anyone and not hurt anyone, not even yourself.

They can tell me that I'm irritating and that I say things to their face, and I'm not lying and I'm sincere, or they can hate me because I'm more forward... but what they can never say is that I've disrespected someone or that I don't I have helped people.

I have always had families in mind and how they can affect things.

Is

Maestros de la Costura

as hard as it looks from the outside or is it much harder?

Sewing Masters

is and is not.

It's hard because it's a contest and you fight a lot to be able to get the tests, to be able to win, but of course it's not hard because you're accompanied by an incredible team that is looking out for you at all times and by some colleagues who become your family.

Nothing hard is done.

Sewing Masters

is a family.


How has it been working with former veteran trainees and new trainees?

You have been more comfortable with the new ones than with the old ones.

Why?


We all got along fine.

With the new ones I got on well, but with the old ones too.

Even with

Eduardo Navarrete

, who for different reasons did not live in the same house, there was a lot of complicity.

with

Laura

, who went to the first, but who is a great friend;

with

Isabel

, with whom I would run every day;

with Borja, with whom I have a lot of friendship.

I don't know what will be seen from the outside, but there were no bad vibes, nor more

feeling

with some than with others.

We have all been a clan, a team.

There have been no differences.


What changes have you noticed from your first edition to this one?

Not only in the mechanics of the tests but also in the attitude of the judges, in the pressure...


I have seen the judges closer, more relaxed, more attentive... They have taken great care of us.

They have had us as babies

.

It has all been fantastic.


What about the black swan in the story of your winning suit in Lluís?


I do not know.

It could be that if there was something, surely there is something.

I don't psychoanalyze myself that much, because I don't have that much time.

But

everything I do I do with essence and emotion

.

With the heart.

I got carried away and did something that moved me to move me.


You had María Escoté crazy, but what judge drove you crazy?


The three.

With

María

I had an

exciting

feeling .

With

Palomo

I have a

feeling

of a brother.

And with

Caprile

you know that she can give you four solutions in a second.

Caprile

is such an honest and loyal person that when nobody gives you a cape, he is the first to give it to you.


What is the best of Sewing Masters and what is the worst?


Perhaps the best thing is to be able to live it.

Go and live it.

It's fantastic.

It's magnificent.

And the worst, that it ends so soon.


And now that?

Duelist of

Masters of Sewing 4

, winner of 5... What is Lluís going to do now? Well, I hope to grow more than ever.

Meeting people, going to all the events to which I am invited, handing out cards, finding a place for myself... But

above all, growing, growing, growing
