Sam Smith shocks in bold dress as they opted for a floor length navy dress as they enjoyed a cigarette outside The Cow pub in Notting Hill on Thursday. 

Rocking flared sleeves and a scooped neckline, Sam flashed the array of inkings on their chest as they chatted with a friend. 

Sam paired the dress with a matching navy bandana and completed the pirate-esque ensemble with gold hooped earrings and a cross body bag.

Sam Smith’s new song

The social outing coincided with the release of Sam’s new song To Be Free. 

The musician has been teasing their latest track on their Instagram the past few weeks admitting the song is ‘more than special to me’.  

They penned: ‘I wrote this song with my dear friend Simon Aldred. It’s one vocal and guitar take from start to finish, made complete by the beautiful injection of the incredible choir we’ve been working with across this new project.

‘To Be Free was written 5 years ago. It’s more than special to me.’

Fans have since gone wild in excitement for the new song as they took to the post to share their love.
