History Main / NaughtyNurseOutfit

Not to be confused with HospitalHottie (actual sexy nurses) or TheFlorenceNightingaleEffect (the relationship between caregiver and patient).

* Subverted by the character ComicBook/NightNurse in Creator/MarvelComics; she wears a Florence Nightingale-type classic nurse outfit, and only serves to administer actual treatment (or at least, until ''ComicBook/DoctorStrangeTheOath'' when she hooked up with the Sorcerer Supreme.) Incidentally, she's also an MD, not a nurse, which makes one wonder if the getup isn't a form of {{Cosplay}} after all. (As she explains it, "'Night Nurse' is just catchier than 'Night General Practitioner'.")

* ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' replaces ComicBook/HarleyQuinn's traditional black and red jester catsuit with a blue and red [[OfCorsetsSexy corset]], kinky thigh-high platform boots and an extremely abbreviated nurse outfit, in keeping with her role as [[ComicBook/TheJoker the new warden's]] sidekick.

* In the ''[[ComicBook/BuffytheVampireSlayer Buffy Season 8]]'' comic-book, Buffy is exploring her dreamscape and stumbles upon one of her own sexual fantasies, which consists of [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MBYoI8rWSsM/TZSa72kjOHI/AAAAAAAAADE/T0HxZKBZAkM/s1600/buffyspkan.jpg a nude Angel, a nude Spike and her wearing a nurse uniform]]. Artist George Jeanty said in on Q&A session of the website Slayalive that prints of this panel were [[FanService extremely]] popular.

Pete Barbutti's "In the Sahara: the Hotel, Not the Desert" comedy album includes a joke in which one of Barbutti's high school buddies had explained why "nurses are easy." It's because "they know where everything is." He went on to say that he grew older and wiser, and realized that was sexist nonsense. Then he grew older and wiser and realized that it was essential.

* In ''Manga/HayateTheCombatButler'', Maria put on [[{{Meganekko}} glasses]] and a nurse outfit in Chapter 140 as a disguise at the suggestion of Nagi's bodyguards. [[PaperThinDisguise It didn't conceal her identity in the slightest]], but viewers certainly didn't [[PerverseSexualLust mind]].

* In episode 16 of ''LightNovel/BodaciousSpacePirates'' one of the many {{Cosplay}} costumes shown is a Nurse's outfit.

* ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'': Mikuru wears a nurse outfit in the BaseballEpisode. It manages to stun the entire team.

* ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'': When Issei is left on a funk after being defeated by Irina and Xenovia, Asia goes to Kiryuu for advice to cheer him up. Kiryuu then lends her a very short, sleeveless nurse dress that she puts on for Issei. Somewhat downplayed given that Asia is more of [[TheCutie a cute than sexy type]], but [[LovableSexManiac Issei]] certainly likes it nonetheless.

* ''LightNovel/TheTestamentOfSisterNewDevil'': Chisato wears a black garter belt with nylons, a skintight miniskirt, and stiletto heels as her standard nurse's attire. But with a body [[HospitalHottie like]] ''[[MsFanservice hers]]'', she'd look "naughty" no matter what she was wearing.

* Worn on the cover and album art of Music/{{Blink 182}}'s album ''Enema of the State'' by porn star Janine Lindemulder. She also appears in the video for lead single "What's My Age Again?", being the only thing that makes the [[NakedPeopleAreFunny naked and running]] bandmembers to go out of their way.

** And of course, the [[FanDisservice Monster Nurses]] ''would'' be this, were it not for the fact that their [[BodyHorror heads are just large, bloated pustules]], they're filthy and ragged, and their proportions are [[UncannyValley just off enough to be disturbing rather than enticing]]. In ''VideoGame/SilentHill2'' they, like most monsters, represent James' sexual frustration, and are based off the fact that his wife apparently wore such outfits earlier in their marriage (and probably also the fact that, during her illness, James probably would have found himself noticing a lot of nurses).

** [[HornyDevils Morrigan]] also sometimes dons a nurse outfit, like in Pocket Fighter.

A sexy but impractical nurse outfit that plays to an apparently widespread fetish for nurses. It is far more {{Stripperific}} than the loose-fitting scrubs nurses of either gender wear these days, and which are more like baggy pyjamas.[[note]]Although of course there's some appeal to that outfit as well.[[/note]] Most of the time, these costumes are worn by women who aren't nurses, but sometimes they pop up on actual nurses in material that's heavy on FanService or just written by someone who's apparently never seen a real nurse. Red-and-white stripes are not uncommon, referring to the outfits that gave hospital volunteers the nickname "candy stripers"; otherwise, the outfit is likely to be pure white.

* From the ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'' series, Ayane, Christie, Helena, Hitomi, Honoka, Kasumi. Kokoro, Lisa, Lei Fang, Mai, Marie Rose, Mila, Moniji, Naotora, Nyotengu, Rachel, Sarah and Tina have one as a costume in ''Dead or Alive 5: Last Round''.

* In Series/TheOffice episode “Costume Contest” Angela wears this outfit for the Halloween costume contest, she would’ve liked to have dressed as a cat but they were sold out and that was her only option.

* In the ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' manga, [[GenderBender female-]]Ranma dresses up as an actual nurse to convince a [[IllGirl sickly]] (and presumably moribund) boy to take the medicine that would save his life. Unfortunately, it only kicks his already blatant fetishes [[IntimateHealing into overdrive]].

It ''is'', however, something of a DeadUnicornTrope in the West; in Japan, however, anime nurses are routinely underdressed. While at one point nurses ''did'' (and in some countries, still do) wear dresses or skirts as part of their uniforms, the hems were ''never'' more than an inch or two above the knee, ''at most''. Nor did they show AbsoluteCleavage. An overly-sexy outfit (besides being impractical) would have been seen as unprofessional, and would have caused them to lose credibility with patients and/or their families.

* In one episode of ''Anime/NanakaSixSeventeen'', on the way to check in on her ill childhood friend/love interest, Nanaka encounters her fanboy friend, who convinces her to borrow a nurse's outfit from the local hospital. It does not have the intended effect, however. Actually, ''any'' effect that might've occurred was sorely hampered by the fact that, due to LaserGuidedAmnesia, said fanboy pal is unaware (but her childhood friend ''isn't'') that 17-year-old Nanaka has the personality and mindset of a 6-year-old.

* Used in an early episode of ''Series/TheSopranos''.

* ''[[Anime/GhostInTheShell GITS: Solid State Society]]'':
** Aramaki's [[TheMentor mentor]] Colonel Tonoda is bed-ridden and attended by half a dozen {{sexbot}}s in backless outfits. Ironically he's too far gone even to notice them.
** The cyborg techs in [[Manga/GhostInTheShell the original manga]] were also dressed according to this trope.

* Towards the end of an episode (aptly entitled "From [[SchoolNurse Nurse]] to Worse") of ''Series/SavedByTheBell'', Zack sees his crush Nurse Jennifer, instead of her standard white mini-dress uniform, don a black, tubed [[DangerouslyShortSkirt mini-skirt]], black [[StockingFiller pantyhose]] and black pumps, a big [[ImpossibleHourglassFigure waist hugging]] black Western belt (with a silver buckle), a purple pocketed t-shirt (with [[ShouldersofDoom shoulder pads]]), plastic purple hooped earrings, her hair in a bun (which she would soon [[ShakingHerHairLoose shake loose]] to further [[GoSeduceMyArchnemesis rile Zack up]]), and her [[LabcoatofScienceandMedicine white medical coat]] (which Jennifer soon takes off since it's [[GettingHotinHere "rather warm"]] in her office) for good measure.
