The standard attire for a naked butler is only an apron or trunks, cuffs, detachable collar and bow tie. It is seen as a more conservative entertainment option to hiring a male stripper for a Bachelorette party as it can be suitable for a broader range of guests.

In this case the apron will be replaced with smart black trousers. This option may be more commonly used during corporate entertainment where the attire needs to be smarter, and the exposing of a butler's naked bottom is not appropriate.

In February 2005, the role and job of a naked butler was discussed in the documentary Going to work Naked on ITV. [1] In 2018, naked butlers were part of an international news feature after being hired by a retirement home as part of the resident's wish program. [2]

Despite its reputation as "a sodden farewell to maiden days" or "an evening of debauchery", these events can simply be parties given in honor of the bride-to-be, in the style that is common to that social circle.
