But company officials told the newspaper they could do nothing. The women told them it was their freedom to choose how to dress while they were at home, just as they did in Russia.
A lawyer told the newspaper the women weren't breaking any laws by wearing little or no clothes at home.
Meanwhile, in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region public nudity led to a man being detained by police in Hechi City after he went for a naked swim on Sunday.
According to China News Service, several women were swimming in a river when the man jumped in wearing no clothes. The frightened women immediately swam back to the bank, the agency said.
The man was in the water for about 10 minutes before he ended his swim.
The agency said many people said they felt embarrassed by such behavior while female residents expressed their anger at his actions. Police said the man would be detained for five to 10 days for exposing himself in public.
In a country that has seen marked progress in reform and opening up, nudity is still controversial.
In a recent case, a TV news report censored the private parts of Michelangelo's "David."
In another, many movie fans were disappointed when they found that China's Administration of Radio, Film, and Television had censored Kate Winslet's breasts in "Titanic 3D."
