The 34-year-old wore a long black alice + olivia overcoat over a white shirt, skinny black tie and skintight leather trousers with wide bell bottoms.

And she topped off her ensemble with a black trilby giving the overall effect of an old-time gangster from a Hollywood film.

Her 45-year-old husband, Jay Z, was more casually dressed in a black raincoat over a black T-shirt, baggy leather trousers and sand-coloured Timberland boots.

The  99 Problems rapper, record producer and entrepreneur completed his outfit with a brown hat.

He followed behind his wife of seven years as they left the restaurant, giving no chance of a public display of affection - very different from the Instagram snap they posted on Saturday.

In it, Jay Z lovingly embraced Beyoncé from behind as they both smiled from ear to ear. 

The superstar sizzled in a low-cut gold gown that showed off plenty of cleavage and featured a thigh-high split.

Sport a classic trench coat like Beyonce

We first spotted Beyonce in Harbison earlier this year when she attended NYFW. And since then it seems like the sultry singer has taken a liking to the Brooklyn based brand.

Her latest ensemble included a revealing slip dress and matching trench coat from the label's Spring 2015 collection. We absolutely adore the mustard hue of Queen Bey's topper and the full length makes this one elegant look.

Since his debut two years ago, designer Charles Harbison has not only lured Beyonce as a faithful client, her sister Solange and Rihanna have donned his gear as well.

Get Bey's trench at Amazon for $1550 with a click to the right. Or save some cash with the options below. Buy a suede version at Y.A.S. or try the sleeveless number at ASOS.
