I think of unwear, but I couldn't find this in a dictionary.
I'm interested to know what could be said to to someone to give him an order not to wear a jacket, besides "Don't wear your jacket".

That's the most straightforward way to give the order.

I just want the meaning of "stop wearing your jacket" instead of "don't wear your jacket", because I feel the latter is more suitable to someone who's not already wearing his jacket and you're telling him not to wear it, e.g. "don't be wearing your jacket" is more meaningful, no?

Maybe you're thinking of these opposites?

Put on your jacket.

That's it Mr. CalifJim, I think "put on" should mean "wear", and take off should mean "stop wearing", right?

Right.
