* ''Art/PsycheAndCupidBouguereau'' Psyche's ascend to godhood is represented by the contrast between "Psyche", in which she is clothed, and all of the other {{paintings}}, which depict her naked. This ties back to Academicism's [[OutNudityIsDifferent nude symbolism]]--it's a way to signal a character is not human.

* ''WesternAnimation/GetEd'': The Dojo kids normally wear a basic set of clothing, switching to power-up gear ([[FantasyHelmetEnforcement complete with helmets and padding]]) to do their deliveries or fight Bedlam. However, in one episode they decide to [[CoolestClubEver go clubbing]] and switch to civilian outfits (which are, in fact, {{Palette Swap}}s of their regular models - not one polygon has changed).
