Sure it's literal...which is more than we can say for Ezek. 16! The context of Is. 3 is extravangance & ostentatious display manifest thru ornamentation. Thus, when we come to the clothing articles listed, it's apparent [& some translations actually indicate this] that there was elaborate designs & probably even metals woven into them. The point is, they were "literally" wearing this stuff...which God called "filth" in chp. 4:4. Do we have the same God today or not? Of course we do........rdp.
