Go-Go Enslavement/Playing With

Basic Trope: For whatever reason, the Damsel in Distress is forced to wear skimpy clothing.
 * Straight: After Dirk Dastardly captures Helpless Holly, he forces her to wear a bikini.
 * Exaggerated: Holly is given no clothing whatsoever, and she has to make do as best she can with strategically placed chains.
 * Justified:
 * Dirk's lair is in a place with a warm climate and No Nudity Taboo.
 * He has her like this to remove/reduce hiding spots for things on her body.
 * The clothing Holly is given is normal clothing from Dirk's culture and Holly's clothing was damaged during her capture
 * Inverted:
 * Queen Evulz forces Bob to go around shirtless while he's captured by her.
 * Horrible Holly dresses up in a skimpy costume and gives Daring Dirk a lap dance to get info out of him.
 * Dirk is The Fundamentalist, and forces Holly to wear a respectable floor length burkha.
 * Subverted: Dirk provides Holly with new clothes. It's a rather tasteful floor length dress.
 * Double Subverted: ...which turns out to be entirely transparent.
 * Parodied:
 * Dirk is The Fundamentalist, and he forces Holly to wear clothing that is skimpy by his standards, but is ridiculously conservative by anyone else's.
 * Holly is forced to wear a bikini. Fan Disservice ensues.
 * Deconstructed: The work explores the Unfortunate Implications of a villain who forces his female captives to wear suggestive clothing. Luckily, Alice manages to escape the worst of Dirk's intentions by mockingly asking what his Freudian Excuse is, touching a raw nerve and causing him to let his guard down.
 * Reconstructed: Dirk laughs off Alice's Armchair Psychology and explains that he doesn't do it for personal titillation, he just knows how humiliating it is - and as a bonus, it restricts his prisoners' potential concealment opportunities.
 * Zig Zagged: Dirk provides his hostages with modest or skimpy clothing based on his choosing. Holly complains about the bikini, mocking the pathetic sexuality of a man who gets his kicks by exposing helpless women, and Dirk apologises, explaining that it's more of a power demonstration than anything else. Then it emerges that he has a secret camera installed in the cage...
 * Averted: Holly isn't forced to wear anything.
 * Enforced: "We want Holly to be the show's Ms. Fanservice without coming off as a whore. Ooh, let's have Dirk force her to wear a bikini when he captures her."
 * Lampshaded: "Nice outfit, Holly... did he buy you some roses and chocolates too?"
 * Invoked: "I have no taste for this kind of thing, my dear, but one must keep up appearances in the villain business"
 * Exploited: Dirk is a Corrupt Corporate Executive CEO of a softcore porn company, and this is how videos starring Holly start out.
 * Defied: "Don't worry, I won't outfit you in some tasteless fetishwear. Even Evil Has Standards, you know"
 * Discussed: "I'll bet any money she's wearing a skimpy outfit."
 * Conversed: "Why are they always wearing skimpy clothing?"
 * Played For Drama: Holly is Purity Personified, and being forced to wear such skimpy clothing in public is psychological torture. Dirk's sleazy henchmen leer at her constantly, and she spends every moment in fear that one of them will decide to have his way with her. Even after she's rescued, she has Bad Dreams flashing back to her imprisonment for years afterwards.
 * Played For Laughs: "Now I have you, my pretty, and soon your little boyfriend will stumble into my tr- why are you stripping off? No, I did NOT force you to! What kind of sick- get dressed! People will think I'm a pervert. And get off my leg! Christ, you're like a horny labrador... Guards!"
