The French expression à poil refers to body hair - when you are à poil, you're wearing nothing but your own hair. It's equivalent to the English expression "in one's birthday suit," and can be used as an adjective or as a command in numerous expressions:

être à poil (to be stark naked)

se baigner à poil (to go skinny-dipping)

se mettre à poil (to strip down to one's birthday suit)

un mec / une fille à poil (a naked guy / girl)

À poil ! (Take 'em off!)
Example:

N'ouvre pas la porte - je suis à poil !

Don't open the door - I'm completely naked!]
