The new ink is a black line drawing of a child in underpants and high heels, staring at their reflection in an ornate mirror.
The singer was tattooed by Miles Langford at The London Social tattoo studio in north London.
Langford shared a photo of himself and Smith, alongside the tattoo, with the caption: “ICON Sam Smith. Thanks for getting tattooed.”

The new ink, posted by Sam’s London-based tattoo artist
Miles Langford, depicts a person with short hair dressed only in underwear and wearing high heels as they look at their reflection in a mirror.
The image on Sam’s upper arm is seemingly a representation of the singer’s own gender identity journey. Sam came out as non-binary in 2019 and now uses the pronouns they/them.
The new tat could also represent the singer’s struggles with body image, which they’ve previously been open about.
Neither Sam nor their tattoo artist have commented on the meaning behind the tattoo yet, instead letting the art speak for itself.
