underdress
Wear too little
Underdress means to dress too casually or plainly for an occasion: I'd rather overdress than underdress for the interview.
The word also names an undergarment or a dress worn beneath another—a slip or petticoat.
As a verb, it's the opposite of overdress; as a noun, it describes what goes under the visible layer.
