That would be the least of the problems in Corinth with all that transpired there.
Look at the examples you shared as to problems in Corinth. They are quite serious in nature. They are clearly stated by Paul.
For the record, I am not stating dress doesn't matter. I am stating that the passages in question are not about dress codes.

I agree, yet I'm not sure it didn't include such things as dress under the broad brush umbrella of "associating with them". They were worshiping with unbelievers. What were the practices of those unbelievers in their worship?
