Is it haram for a woman to uncover in front of non-mahram men?

Short answer

Yes. According to the consensus of scholars, a woman must cover her body, except what normally shows, before men who are not her mahram. The Quran commands this in 24:31 and 33:59. Scholars differ about whether the face and hands must be covered. Men must also cover from the navel to the knees.

Evidence

Quran

وَقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَٰرِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَ فُرُوجَهُنَّ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا ۖ وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَىٰ جُيُوبِهِنَّ ۖ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا لِبُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ ءَابَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ ءَابَآءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَآءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ إِخْوَٰنِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِىٓ إِخْوَٰنِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِىٓ أَخَوَٰتِهِنَّ أَوْ نِسَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَٰنُهُنَّ أَوِ ٱلتَّٰبِعِينَ غَيْرِ أُو۟لِى ٱلْإِرْبَةِ مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ أَوِ ٱلطِّفْلِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَظْهَرُوا۟ عَلَىٰ عَوْرَٰتِ ٱلنِّسَآءِ ۖ وَلَا يَضْرِبْنَ بِأَرْجُلِهِنَّ لِيُعْلَمَ مَا يُخْفِينَ مِن زِينَتِهِنَّ ۚ وَتُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعًا أَيُّهَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ ﴿٣١﴾

Na waambie Waumini wanawake wainamishe macho yao, na wazilinde tupu zao, wala wasionyeshe uzuri wao isipo kuwa unao dhihirika. Na waangushe shungi zao juu ya vifua vyao, wala wasionyeshe uzuri wao ila kwa waume zao, au baba zao, au baba wa waume zao, au watoto wao, au watoto wa waume zao, au kaka zao, au wana wa kaka zao, au wana wa dada zao, au wanawake wenzao, au iliyo wamiliki mikono yao ya kuume, au wafwasi wanaume wasio na matamanio, au watoto ambao hawajajua mambo yaliyo khusu uke. Wala wasipige chini miguu yao ili yajuulikane mapambo waliyo yaficha. Na tubuni nyote kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, enyi Waumini, ili mpate kufanikiwa.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّأَزْوَٰجِكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَآءِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يُدْنِينَ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِن جَلَٰبِيبِهِنَّ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن يُعْرَفْنَ فَلَا يُؤْذَيْنَ ۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًۭا رَّحِيمًۭا ﴿٥٩﴾

Ewe Nabii! Waambie wake zako, na binti zako, na wake za Waumini wajiteremshie nguo zao. Hivyo ni karibu zaidi kuweza kutambulikana wasiudhiwe. Na Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kusamehe, Mwenye kurehemu.
