Unfortunately, outside of your helmet, it is only possible to hide all your armor simultaneously. There is no way to hide individual pieces of armor.
Here is how to hide armor and cloaks in Baldur’s Gate 3:
- For instance, my character started the game with Homely Clothes
- Default: The default option is what you want if you want all of your armor to show.
- Camp: The camp option will remove your armor and leave you in your character in their Overclothes only.
If you want your character to be naked, you need to toggle to the Camp option and then unequip your character’s Overclothes, Shoes, and Underwear (marked in the red box above). Remember that you will see your character’s genitalia if that option is enabled in the in-game settings, making your character NSFW. Otherwise, your character will still look naked but have their bits covered up.
