* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'': In "Summer in the City", Stella and Danny must solve the mysterious death of a famous designer found dead, wearing his latest creation which is a bra made of diamonds. In the course of the investigation, they interview the model who wore the bra for a photoshoot, and there are plenty of flashbacks to the shoot where she is wearing the diamond bra and nothing else.

* ''Literature/TheBible'': In The book of Esther, Queen Vashti is holding a banquet for the noblewomen of Persia, while her husband, King Xerxes, holds another banquet for his buddies to celebrate his recent victory. He drunkenly asks her to make an appearance before his guests wearing her crown. According to some scholars, she was to wear ''only'' her crown. Vashti refused, naturally, and Xerxes deposed her as queen and banished her on his buddies' advice.

This trope was included in the literature folder, and included a more detailed description then the one provided in the religion folder, and I think this example should only be in this folder since it counts in this folder more. I also added a few things.

* In the Literature/BookOfEsther, the Persian king Ahasuerus wants to show off his beautiful wife, Vashti, and orders her to appear at his banquet "wearing the royal crown." A common interpretation is that he intended for her to be wearing ''nothing but'' said crown, which helps explain why she refused.

* In ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', mariliths (demons with the upper body of a six-armed woman and the [[SnakePeople lower body of a giant snake]]) are often depicted like this, wearing scant or no clothing but a great deal of jewelry. In fact, they frequently dress like this even while [[BlingOfWar commanding]] [[ChainmailBikini demonic armies]]. This is all perfectly justified, since a marilith fits the ObviouslyEvil and EvilIsSexy Tropes ''at the same time'', and as a high-ranking demon has skin far tougher than any physical armor.

* A variant in ''Literature/KushielsLegacy''. [[MagnificentBitch Melisande]] contracts Phèdre (a [[HighClassCallGirl courtesan]]) to accompany her as a "pet" to a court function wearing a very see-through gauze gown studded with diamonds, and a collar with a magnificent diamond (and ring for a leash). Phèdre-1an experienced courtesan at this point--is still both amazed at the opulence of the outfit, and more than a little mortified at being ''that'' exposed in front of every high-ranking noble of the realm.
