Robbie Williams gave fans a cheeky throwback to his Take That days as he attended a Q&A for his new album Britpop on Tuesday.
The hitmaker, 51, arrived a pair of denim dungarees akin to the ones he wore while performing in the beloved boyband back in the 1990s.
Robbie, who is set to release his new album on October 10th, also reflected on how his appearance has changed over the years, during an interview with Joe Lycett at London’s Groucho Club.
The Angels legend confessed his hair is now ‘thinning everyday’ and he’s struggling to keep his locks looking full for his fans.
Asked how he’s maintained his ageless appearance, Robbie said: ‘Because I’ve got like ADHD and I don’t look, and my self care is appalling and then I have to remember to apply moisturiser, which I do have.
‘Then it’s just a fools error because then I don’t do it again for another two months.

‘The hair is powder and scaffolding because it’s thinning and it’s going and I think about it everyday.
‘The skin at the moment is due to my makeup artist, who I think has done a really good job.’
Robbie famously wore his denim overalls, and little else, while taking to the stage with Take That to perform at the Smash Hits Poll Winners Party back in 1992.
Reflecting on the look in an interview with British Vogue, he previously said: ‘Dungarees were part of my look back in the day, cost effective, slightly unusual because not many people were wearing them.
‘I’d be naked underneath with my top, but it could cover up my belly, so it gave the illusion that I was a buff ting!’
Robbie’s new album also sees him reunite with his Take That bandmate Gary Barlow, with the pair working on a song together for the first time since he briefly reunited with the band for an album and tour in 2010 and 2011.
He said: ‘I’ve collaborated with Gary on a lot of tracks actually. It’s great because that particular track is a song made by Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow about Morrisey.
Describing the song as ‘considerate’, he added: ‘The reason I’m considerate about it is because I’m writing it from the point of view of a stalker, so it’s somebody who’s stalking, and is completely obsessed and in love with him.’

Robbie and his wife Ayda, 46, share four children, Teddy, 11, son Charlie, nine, daughter Coco, five and three-year-old son Beau.
Robbie previously said that his kids are a massive factor in deciding where to live because they need to be placed in suitable schools.
It was reported earlier this month that he and his wife Ayda have splashed out £30 million on a lavish new waterfront mansion in Miami.
He explained: ‘The four kids are constantly a Rubix Cube puzzle that we’re trying to sort out because if they are schooled then they don’t see me because I’m all over the place and if they are home-schooled then they have another set of things that are a problem.’
Speaking in 2014, Robbie – then a father of two – admitted he was keen to make the United Kingdom his permanent base after spending an extended period of time in the United States.
He told The Sun: ‘I love LA. The people and the weather are great but it’s not England. It can’t offer the same. Things change when you’re a dad – there are people to look after who are more important than yourself.
‘I want [daughter] Teddy and the new baby, whatever it may be, to be educated in England. Teddy is already surrounded by English people so she’s bound to have an accent anyway.
‘But that’s not the point – we want to educate her in London. We’ve just bought a ruddy big house so we had better be coming back!’
