Partial Nudity Tropes



Basically, tropes that have one purpose: how much skin can clothing show before it's considered indecent.

Of course the amount will vary among cultures, yet any degree is still often a way of Getting Crap Past the Radar, which is one of the main reasons these tropes are so often used.

And since since a lot of people find partial nudity more sexy than full nudity, this also makes many of these tropes Fan Service and Fetish Fuel, as well as mildly Not Safe for Work.
