* ''Anime/{{Doraemon}}'': In "Noby, the Great Illusionist", Noby uses a full-body disguise of Sneech's mom to retrieve his rare Cardosaur trading card from Sneech. He does the same thing to retrieve his Beast Mask comic from Big G by disguising himself as Big G's sister, but Big G doesn't fall for it and Noby runs away in panic.

* Moist von Lipwig in the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' evidently studied at the same college as Jim diGriz. [[note]]there are many, many, suspicious similarities between the two characters. Commentators have remarked that now they're married, all the ''slippery'' Moist and the rather ''spiky'' Adorah Belle need to round things off are twin sons.[[/note]]. Moist uses spectacles, unruly wigs, very obvious false moustaches, and nose-hair wigs to horrify his marks -- so that all they can talk about afterwards when the Watch wants a description is all the ''hair'' coming out of his nose and ears...

* The 2003 movie ''Film/LooneyTunesBackInAction'' had an animated Granny unzip her body suit during the jungle scene (via a CGI effect) to reveal the evil live-action ACME Chairman (played by Creator/SteveMartin). Similarly, Tweety unzips in his cage as well, revealing the Tasmanian Devil (who breaks out of the cage doing his spinning/babbling routine), and Sylvester unzips as well, to reveal the Chairman's assistant Mr. Smith, who then unzips his own body suit to reveal an animated female Tasmanian Devil! It's then taken [[UpToEleven ridiculous proportions]], with the Chairman removing his hat in order to unzip another disguise, revealing DJ's father Damien. But when DJ realizes ThisCannotBe, "Damien" says he's right and unzips to reveal UsefulNotes/MichaelJordan who says "[[Film/SpaceJam Let's do some drills.]]" (To which WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck comments, "[[LampshadeHanging This doesn't make a lick of sense!]]") Then under the Michael Jordan suit is the ACME Chairman once again, who materializes away with our heroes, leaving Taz alone with Mr. Smith, who unzips ''his'' body suit to reveal [[SweetPollyOliver a Tasmanian She-Devil!]]
* Can be said of the [[VisualPun literal]] WolfInSheepsClothing seen near the end of ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'', when a police officer wolf suits up as a sheep for an undercover case.
* In ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'', the {{Toon}} who really killed Marvin Acme [[HumanDisguise disguises]] himself under human clothes, a [[LatexPerfection rubber mask]], and a pair of {{glass eye}}s in the mask's eyeholes.
** Later after the BigBad is defeated and a huge crowd of toons arrives, a 'toon sheep pulls off his full-body sheep suit to reveal TheBigBadWolf from Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''WesternAnimation/TheThreeLittlePigs'' cartoons - ''another'' literal WolfInSheepsClothing!

* ''Franchise/LupinIII'' uses these from time to time, often combining them with LatexPerfection. Characters will step out of complete body suits that made them completely identical to someone else. There's a [[Manga/{{Lupin III}} manga]] chapter where Lupin escapes captivity by swapping clothes with a film student named Mayumi, who is then BoundAndGagged and placed inside a full body skin suit that causes her to look exactly like him. It isn't until a tear in the suit accidentally exposes one of Mayumi's breasts that Fujiko realizes the swap has been made.

* A series of commercials for Pepsi Twist featured celebrities revealing themselves to be other celebrities by undoing a huge zipper from head to toe. In one ad, Ozzy Osbourne's kids transform from the Osbournes into the Osmonds. Another ad, which featured both Creator/MikeMeyers as Franchise/AustinPowers an Music/BritneySpears, subverted the formula by having Austin assume Britney was a man in disguise and tried to unmask her to no avail.

* The ''Literature/GeronimoStilton'' episode "The Gator Samaritan" featured Simon Squealer dressing up as the titular superhero this way (using a form-fitting alligator costume complete with tail) and performing good deeds as part of a scam to help the struggling ''Daily Rat'' newspaper. After saving Thea from drowning, Simon realizes GoodFeelsGood and continues the charade independently from the scam. But then a criminal steals the costume's LatexPerfection mask and attempts to use it in a robbery (and in the next episode we see that Simon has gone through a HeelFaceDoorSlam and is back to being a villainous henchman.)
