 English thesaurus
in the buff
gen. nude, completely naked, not wearing any clothes (It comes from buff, which originally meant "buffalo or oxhide," and the term buff-coat, or leather tunic — before the seventeenth century, to be in the buff meant you were wearing such a coat. Later, the similarity of skin to the color of the leather changed the phrase's meaning to "naked.")
