underdressed
Wearing too little
Underdressed means wearing clothes too casual or informal for the occasion.
Someone who shows up to a formal dinner in jeans is underdressed.
The word implies a mismatch between attire and context rather than insufficient coverage: I felt underdressed at the gala in my sundress.
The opposite is overdressed.
