Undress Code




An undress code is the opposite of a Dress Code - it restricts or prohibits the wearing of Clothing , so as to ensure a degree of ''in''formality. Undress codes are common in many public swimming facilities for sanitary reasons. These rules restrict persons using the facilities to specific types of bathing suits.


Undress codes that prohibit clothing altogether (enforcing Nudity ) are less common, and now generally limited to nude recreation facilities, but there are also religious traditions, as was the case with the ancient Indian Gymnosophists or the Christian sect of the Adamites . The custom is still practised by Ascetic s of certain Dharma Religious traditions, as in Jainism .

Laws in many countries that require a person to undress when requested to do so by a customs - or police officer, usually to find illegal drugs or weapons on a suspect during the Strip Search , may also be considered a type of undress code, because the person in question is required by law to remove their clothing, but that is normally kept as short and discreet as possible, not publicly, while similar prison procedures may be deliberately intimidating humiliation.
