the.com/birthday suit
The one outfit you owned before you owned anything, and it still fits.
means Naked — wearing nothing at all, the way you arrived into the world.
from A simple, charming 18th-century coinage: your 'birthday suit' is the body you were born in, since birth is the one day everyone is guaranteed to be wearing absolutely nothing. First recorded use in English dates to the 1730s, and it's stuck around precisely because the joke never gets old.
