Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu
If one is taking Ghusl in a place of concealment (where none can see him), then it is not necessary to cover oneself. However, it is preferable and more in conformity to the dictates of Hayaa (modesty) to cover one's private parts even while taking Ghusl (bath). (Fataawa Mahmoodiyah vol.4 pg.387; Mazhari)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
