Promoters of the entertainment industry, including sport, attempt to "sex-up" the entertainment by under-dressing the entertainers or sportspeople. For example, in 1999, the [[beach volleyball]] regulatory body, the [[International Volleyball Federation]], set a limit on the amount of clothing allowed for the athletes to wear during competition. The women's uniform comprises a bikini with a width limit on the bottoms of {{convert|2.5|inch|cm}} on the sides,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cnn.com/STYLE/9901/13/vollyball.bikini/ |title=Bikini blues – Beach volleyball makes the swimsuit standard |website=CNN.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070813055124/http://www.cnn.com/STYLE/9901/13/vollyball.bikini/ |archive-date=August 13, 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref> which has led to [[Beach volleyball#Uniform controversy|some controversy]],<ref>{{cite web |url =http://www.toxicclub.com/2015/controversy-over-women-athletes-shedding-their-clothes-in-field/ |title =Beach Volleyball dress shed controversy |year =1999 |access-date =2021-02-09 |archive-date =2015-07-12 |archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20150712224812/http://www.toxicclub.com/2015/controversy-over-women-athletes-shedding-their-clothes-in-field/ |url-status =live }}</ref> and in 2012 these limits were relaxed.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/olympics/volleyball/9169429/London-2012-Olympics-female-beach-volleyball-players-permitted-to-wear-less-revealing-uniforms.html |title=London 2012 Olympics: female beach volleyball players permitted to wear less revealing uniforms |date=27 March 2012 |publisher=Telegraph |access-date=2019-02-13 |archive-date=2021-02-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209152258/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/olympics/volleyball/9169429/London-2012-Olympics-female-beach-volleyball-players-permitted-to-wear-less-revealing-uniforms.html |url-status=live }}</ref> In July 2021, a beach handball team was fined because its women members wore shorts instead of bikini bottoms in a match, which requires no more than 10cm of their behind to be covered.
Some restaurants, sometimes called [[breastaurant]]s, require female [[waiting staff]] to be skimpily-dressed.
