Where is any idea of costly here?
He RDP is wrong and has added to the Word.
Greek Scholar AT Robertson said:
Of wearing (peritheseōs). Late and rare word (Galen, Arrian) from peritithēmi (Mat_27:28), to put around, a placing around. Ornaments of gold were worn round the hair as nets and round the finger, arm, or ankle.
Or of putting on (enduseōs). Old word from enduō (to put on), here only in N.T. Peter is not forbidding the wearing of clothes and ornaments by women, but the display of finery by contrast. Cf. 1Ti_2:9-13; Isa_3:16.

Wow...tks. for the help Mike! Robertson demostrates from the Greek that the context is not wearing clothes...but rather "finery"! That's what I've been saying all along! BTW, will you also agree w/ Robertson in
Jn. 17:5 [para in the dative case] &
Jn. 1:1 [pros in the accusative case]? Why not?
