Sam Smith received widespread acclaim for their performance at the BBC Proms, praised for both their music and more modest attire, which included a custom Vivienne Westwood gown and a stylish black suit. The concert featured a mix of their biggest hits, including 'I'm Not the Only One' and 'Stay With Me', and was broadcast live from the Royal Albert Hall. Smith lightheartedly reassured the audience that there would be no risqué antics during the show, humorously stating, 'I'm not going to get my bum out! The clothes are staying on.' Fans took to social media to express their enjoyment of the performance, calling it beautiful and cathartic. The event marked a shift from Smith's typically provocative stage presence to a more traditional concert atmosphere, resonating well with the audience.
