Not wearing clothes; naked or partially naked.
From 'un-' (not) plus 'dressed' (wearing clothes). 'Dress' comes from Old French 'drecier' meaning to arrange or straighten.
The word 'undressed' teaches us how prefixes work in English—add 'un-' to almost any adjective to flip its meaning, which is why English has so much flexibility!
Historically gendered male gaze and power dynamics; female undressing emphasized as vulnerable spectacle in art/literature, while male undressing less objectifying. Language reflects asymmetric power.
Use 'removed clothing' or specific terms. Be aware gendered context in creative/visual work; ask: whose perspective?
