Adam and Chava were allowed to stand naked in prayer only before they ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. (Gen. 2:25)
After the evil inclination had entered into them, it was henceful shameful for them to stand naked before G-d (Gen. 3:10), and therefore G-d taught them to wear clothing. (Gen. 3:21)
In a similar context, one who goes naked in public is disqualified from serving as a witness in a Noahide court.
