Basic Trope: A character ends up stuck outside naked and has to find their way to safety.
- Straight: Alice is locked out of her house naked, and has to get back inside without the neighbors spotting her.
- Exaggerated:
- Alice is stranded a long way from home completely naked and has to traverse the streets to get back home without being spotted by bystanders.
- Alice is trapped naked on an active film set of a reality TV series and has to escape without getting caught on camera.
- A group of bullies know about Alice's predicament and have brought their phones out to record her.
- Alice is also handcuffed to a lamppost and has to free herself before attempting to go home.
- Alice spends the entire series trapped naked outside, futilely attempting to get herself clothed and avoid getting seen naked. She finally returns home in the series finale, but then the police catch her, arrest her for public indecency, and force her to do a nude Perp Walk in front of all her neighbours.
- Alice’s house was foreclosed on her while she was out, leaving her naked and homeless.
- Alice gets her period while locked outside in the nude without any hygiene products.
- Downplayed:
- Alice is only in her underwear.
- Alice is only stuck in her house and just has to get to her room from the shower.
- Justified:
- Alice was hypnotized into stripping outside, and the spell broke.
- Alice is a shapeshifter (and Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing), but ended up in a place where she can't put her clothes back on.
- Inverted:
- Alice is stuck outside wearing one or more garments she wants to remove but can't do so outside.
- Alice embraces the unexpected public nudity fully.
- Alice is nude and wants to go outside nude, but she's confined to her house against her will.
- Subverted:
- Alice loses her swimsuit in the water, but she finds it quickly.
- Alice is unfazed after losing her clothes in public and continues going about her business, not seeming to care about her sudden nudity.
- Double Subverted:
- But on the way, her swimsuit snags on a fence and is ripped off. She has to make it to the bag to change back to her regular clothes.
- Alice didn't panic because she didn't notice her nudity, but when Bob points it out to her, she has a Naked Freak-Out.
- Parodied:
- Alice is a Gonk and the joke is how the people who see her are grossed out.
- When Alice gets home, she's met by a Birthday Suit Surprise Party. "Well, at least I'm dressed for the occasion..."
- Zig-Zagged:
- Alice keeps gaining and losing clothing during her attempt to make her way home.
- Alice is locked outside naked one day, clothed the next, and then naked again the day after that.
- Alice doesn't notice that she's naked, then she does and freaks out, then she rolls with it and even comes to enjoy it somehow.
- Averted: Alice's clothes aren't lost after her shower. She exits the washroom in her regular clothes.
- Enforced: Fanservice and/or Rule of Funny
- Lampshaded: "Of all the things ... why does this always happen to me..."
- Invoked:
- Alice's little brother Charlie plans a prank on her to steal her clothes during her shower.
- See Gone Swimming, Clothes Stolen.
- Exploited:
- The whole thing is part of a reality TV stunt relying on the fact that Naked People Are Funny. Alice's loss of clothing is all part of the show.
- Alice routinely strips herself naked in public and sneaks back home to practice her stealth.
- Defied: Alice wears a swimsuit that's not easy to get lost, even fastening it to her body where it's a bit loose.
- Discussed: "Wait, she's outside with no clothes? This I gotta see!"
- Conversed: "A naked woman streaking in broad daylight. Is it sweeps already?"
- Deconstructed:
- A cop spots Alice and arrests her for public indecency.
- A video crew spots Alice and her streak becomes a viral sensation.
- Reconstructed:
- Alice explains that the whole thing was a prank. The cop understands, drives her home to redress, and the person who started it gets arrested.
- Alice is actually recording a scene in a movie, so when that scene ends up being the most popular of the film, Alice's sex appeal increases for her next role.
- Played for Laughs: Often is, because Naked People Are Funny.
- Played for Drama:
- The scenario happened because of a bully extorting her. The scene is sad more than funny.
- A pervert sees her while she's naked and takes advantage of her.
- She's locked outside naked on a bitterly cold day and nearly freezes to death.
- Played for Horror:
- Rapists are hunting down Alice.
- Alice is kidnapped and forced to be a Sex Slave.
- Implied: Alice is seen entering her house naked and dirty.
