Line 55:
* Kureha from ''[[Tokko]]'' walks around bra-less and shirtless with only an [[No Shirt, Long Jacket|unzipped leather jacket]] covering her. Sakura also doesn't appear to wear a bra under her tank-top.
* Eriko from ''[[Dragon Crisis]]'' goes bra-less sometimes - in particular, her dress from episode 6.
* The Yuurei Shoujo from ''[[Gate Keepers 21]]'' wears a transparent dress, scarf, and nothing else.
* ''[[Ranma ½]]'': Ranma Saotome, being a guy [[Incredibly Lame Pun|half the time]], never wears bras when he's in his female form. All the male students at his high school love it, I assure you.
* [[Bleach]]: Riruka [http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1k0thWsYN1rriybno1_500.jpg was either panty-less or only wearing a g-string] in this shot.

== [[Comic Books]] ==
* ''[[Empowered]]'', the [[Incredibly Lame Pun|titular]] heroine of that series, is empowered by a super suit that gives her super strength and super toughness. She can't wear anything over the outfit because anything touching it kills its powers. She can't wear underwear under it, for the same reason, and since it is literally skin tight, even a thong looked horrible. The lack of...certain things being visible through the suit was dodged in book 3, and seemed to have become a running gag in the metatext pages at the end that they'll never actually tell us how Emp gets around that problem.
* The Engineer from ''[[The Authority]]''. Her "outfit" was created when her nanomachines came out and [[Chrome Champion|covered her skin]]. Earlier issues showed how form-fitting it was quite clearly. If, for whatever reason, her nanomachines malfunctioned, well, they get reabsorbed into her body leaving nothing behind. [[wikipedia:File:Authority9.jpg|Picture of a cover with her on it here]]. The Engineer straight up admits to being an exhibitionist when challenged on why she doesn't wear anything ''over'' it.
* At least one [[Marvel]] artist draws the Scarlet Witch in outfits that make it clear she can ''not'' be wearing any panties. Said artist stated Wanda goes commando, and insisted there is no canon artwork of her that shows her wearing panties.
Line 73:
{{quote|''Bystander:'' Son, I wanted you to learn about the female body; I just wish your first sight of it wasn't twenty feet wide.}}
* ''[[Gotham City Sirens]]'' makes it very clear that [[Catwoman (comics)|Catwoman]] cannot be wearing a bra underneath her [[Spy Catsuit]].
* ''[http://www.indyplanet.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=3429 Gemini Storm]'' has Elizabeth Rose, whose clothes are all strapless and we can see she doesn't wear a bra underneath. She does [http://hdub7.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2jznu9 wear a thong], though.
* The cleavage window in [[Power Girl]]'s leotard is almost always drawn in a way that would make it impossible for her to be wearing a bra underneath.
** And sometimes even drawn so wide that it seems she [[Barbie Doll Anatomy|has no nipples]], either.
Line 84:
 
== [[Film]] ==
* Elektra King from the [[James Bond (film)|James Bond]] movie ''[[The World Is Not Enough]]''.
** Mention must be made of [http://jamesbond007.net/Images/lowell.jpg Carey Lowell's costume] that, sadly, only appeared in the poster for ''[[Licence to Kill]]''.
** [[Diamonds Are Forever|Plenty O'Toole]] didn't wear a bra 'til some [[Moral Guardians]] made them paint one on.
* Sharon Stone in an oft-parodied scene from ''[[Basic Instinct]]''.
* Rene Russo in ''[[The Thomas Crown Affair]]'' goes to a ball wearing a very see-through black dress.
* In the [[Alternate Universe]] of ''[[Black Mama White Mama]]'', bras were never introduced to the Philippines.
* Carrie Fisher didn't wear a bra in ''[[A New Hope]]'', which isn't noticeable...until she gets wet. [[Word of God|According to her]], George Lucas decreed that [[Author Appeal|bras didn't exist in space]], so for running scenes, she was protected from bouncing via ''duct tape''.
Line 116:
* Done by Craye Sawtelle, the [[Evil Sorcerer|Evil Sorceress]] of ''The Spring'', one of the Silver John stories by [[Manly Wade Wellman]]:
{{quote|"She winnowed close then. I made out that she didn't have on air stitch under her silky dress. She was proudly made, and well she knew it. She stood so close she near about touched me."}}
* In ''[[Incarnations of Immortality|On A Pale Horse]]'', when Death meets Nature, she is wearing a dress literally made out of fog. In every other book in the series, she wears a dress made of leaves.
** [[Piers Anthony]] [[Author Appeal|is in a polygamous marriage]] with this trope and [[Panty Shot]], and they recur regularly, separately or in the same paragraph, throughout all his series.
** To illustrate: in one novel, appropriately titled [[Xanth|''The Color Of Her Panties'']], [[The Quest]] is to determine [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|the color of a certain female character's panties]]. The complication is that she has yet to start wearing any underwear.
Line 132:
* [[media:servie_2408.jpg|Servalan]] from ''[[Blake's Seven|Blakes Seven]]''. It's more obvious in motion, but still...''damn''.
* Professor Amelia Rumford in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' story "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S16 E3 The Stones of Blood|The Stones of Blood]]" wore a silk blouse without a bra when the air was a bit chilly.
* ''[[30 Rock]]'': Liz Lemon counseled her assistant Cerie about wearing revealing outfits and going braless at the office, despite protests from the male staff.
* In an episode of ''[[Friends]]'', Monica's decision not to wear a bra results in embarassing consequences when she chooses to sing at Mike's piano bar and the stage lighting causes her breasts to become very visible to the cheering male audience. She thinks they like her singing.
* When Parker of ''[[Leverage]]'' [[Toplessness From the Back|changes clothes in an elevator]], she is notably not wearing a bra. Kind of weird if you think about it - she's on a job and must have known she'd have to change - but nobody's complaining.
* About half the time the main cast of ''[[Charmed]]'' are on screen, they don't seem to be aware of the existence of bras.
* In the ''[[That '70s Show]]'' episode "The Third Wheel", Eric refers to Hyde's [[Girl of the Week]] as "Little Miss Can't Find a Bra".
* Brittany and Santana went on a date with Finn during the first season of ''[[Glee]]''. Brittany later informed Sue that they tried everything to seduce him--Brittany, for example, didn't wear a bra. And asked management to turn up the air conditioning. Ahem.
* Jaime Sommers in ''[[The Bionic Woman]]'' wears quite a lot of barely legal dresses with no bra, which, in reruns, are slightly startling to modern sensibilities.
* Shamelessly employed on the ''[[Tremors]]'' series, when Rosalita taught a self-defense lesson to Burt's survival class, apparently without realizing her white T-shirt was soaking wet. Not that the guys in the class were complaining, mind you.
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' has the first Slayer, whose costume seems to be nothing but [[Bare Your Midriff|strategically-placed]] [[Fur Bikini|cheesecloth]].
