unattired
Wearing no garments
Unattired means not wearing clothes; naked or undressed.
The word is formal or literary, appearing in contexts where *naked* would feel too blunt: The painter's unattired model reclined on the divan.
It can also mean simply not yet dressed: She was still unattired when the guests arrived.
