UiCollcetionViewCell specific segue to connect TableView show specific content within TableView - ios

Question

Hi there the question i would like to ask is there a way of creating such code in Objective C that will allow me to select a single UICollectionViewCell within a UICollectionViewController and link it to a table view that shows UICollectionViewCell specific content based upon what UICollectionViewCell has been selected without creating hundreds of UITableViewControllers?
A know this is not code but this is what i want the code to achieve if it is possible:
on click of collection view cell dresses show table view.
then on the table view...
if collection view clicked was dresses display dresses table view.
surely this is possible?
Also if possible i would like the code to somehow group things togethers as this will be done on a large scale i have 106 collection view cells that need linking to table views of which need to contain a minimum of 30 TableViewCells each.

I tried your question for getting solution.Finally I successfully got the solution.Below code works perfectly.
In ViewController
.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface ViewController : UIViewController<UICollectionViewDataSource,UICollectionViewDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UICollectionView *collectionViewSelection;
#end

#import "CustomCollectionViewCell.h"

NSMutableArray *imgArray;
NSMutableArray *lblArray;
}
#end

#synthesize collectionViewSelection;
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
imgArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:#"casual.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"checked.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"collar.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"formal.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"jean.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"neck.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"pant.png"],nil];
lblArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:#"casual",#"checked",#"collar",#"formal",#"jean",#"neck",#"pant", nil];
UICollectionViewFlowLayout *flowLayout = [[UICollectionViewFlowLayout alloc] init];
flowLayout.scrollDirection = UICollectionViewScrollDirectionVertical;
