The photographer said she never got into trouble while taking the photos in New York City. Photo: Eroca Simone/nueyorkWhat would the world feel like without clothes? Plain, simple and nude, isn't it? Well, that's how Erica Simone, 29, wanted to visualise the world around her.
On a project to embrace her primary state of being, Erica, a Parisian photographer living in New York, has been taking naked photographs of herself for the last five years. Erica now hopes to turn it into a book once she raises enough money through an online fund-raising.
The photos see her doing daily activities ranging from things such as shopping to making a phone call to commuting in train 'naked'.
On her online fund-raising page, she says: "'Nue York: Self-Portraits of a Bare Urban Citizen bloomed from an initial questioning about clothing and the importance of fashion in modern society."

The project’s slogan is “Nothing Fits Like You” (#thepowerofnaked) and is a campaign about being comfortable with who you are as a person, with your body, your mind and your role in society.
So far, she has raised more than $10,000.
