when various fabrics rub together, excess charges are picked up by some and lost by others, creating a build-up of charges. opposites attract--like charges repel
Yes, the body is a natural capacitor. Therefore, it builds up static charges. Not much else to say about it, really.
When the clothes are tossed and tumbled in the dryer, they rub against each other and build up static electricity. The static electricity is a build up of charges on the clothes and it is attracted to the opposite charge that is present on the body. Since opposite charges attract, the clothes cling to the body.
The term used to describe the build up of electric charge on a non-conductive material due to friction is static electricity.
Static charges build on every body. If enough charges build on body then static discharge happens when they came in contact. Examples are attracting of paper pieces with comb , Xerox machine , Vandegraff generator etc.,
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
lightning forms when negative charges drop to the lower parts of a cloud and positive charges build up on the ground below.

It is called static.

When you build up electrical charges on the surface of an object you get static. Static can result in a small shock if the electrical charge is given a direct conductive contact to the ground.
