Looks fine. I'm carrying a little extra weight so I like my jerseys a little loose. He is slender and the fit looks fine. Yes, shorts are worn without any underware. I just wash my stuff in the washer with Woolite and then air dry. I do try to wash right after my ride when possible.

I put the image codes on for ya, but if ya don't want them I'll get ride of them 
they also look fine to me, too. The shorts look a teeny bit tight, but some people like them like that, and they stretch, so they should be fine.
no 'undies' under the knicks

Fit looks just fine.
He should go commando under the cycling shorts. The last thing you want down there is cotton underwear of any kind.

A jersey is not too tight unless it interferes with your breathing. If the jersey is baggy under your arms or around your waist, then it is too big.
