Brother Gino Jennings gives an explanation to the above. Also saying that an unchurched individual shouldn't have a problem with lusting after a female dressed a certain way is mistaken. Brother Gino Jennings points out that everything from cars to cornflakes (my words) is sold with a scantily clad female. Why because to the carnal male that is where the focus goes.
Jesus warns married men that if they were even to look upon a woman with lust they were in adultery. So, Jesus knew their was a problem. The Bible also states that there is an attire of a harlot
Proverb 17:10 Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent. Doesn't get any plainer than that.
1 Timothy 2:9
Likewise, I want the women to adorn themselves with respectable apparel, with modesty, and with self-control, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
The above is Paul speaking about women in Timothy's congregation. He says he wants them to be dressed in "respectable" attire, which would be the opposite of being dressed like a prostitute.
