Depends on the context. Nudity with your partner in an intimate location or position is sexy. Clothes that show off the female form (from a straight man's perspective) can be sexy but it depends on the wearer and how provocative they are or are trying to be and whether the clothes suit the person and the context. Lingerie on a model can be titillating or revealing or maybe confronting but its sexy I think when you know the person wearing the gear and maybe its worn for you to see and not everyone.
On the basis that we are designed to recognise contrast (in colours shapes, shades etc.) the clothing industry capitalises on this to market their products. Exactly how many adverts have we all seen that claim "their" clothing product "will make you appear sexier" - either as a direct statement of the fact, or by indirect implication? In Aus. we have to cope with "Fashon TV" which regularly runs hours of programming on "Sexy Swimwear" and "Sexy Lingerie" - so the conclusion should be obvious - the "Fashion Industry" is desperately hell bent on inculcating the "clothing is sexy" image on everyone. The REALITY is that it is all simply packaging technology - you don't buy washing powder to keep the box, so why should any of us be interested in what's simply the wrapper - the contents are far more important (and I suggest FAR more interesting!)
Personally, whils the Mrs looks great wearing clothes, I think she looks FAR better naked (and I'm advised by "Herself" that she thinks the same way about me too, which is very nice!)

Is nudity or clothing "sexier"?
