It would appear the text actually would suggest women not to wear costly apparel, if we take what he says literally.
Again go back to the text in almost any translation. It says what it says and there is no explanation attached to it.
Paul doesn't say anything about Jesus wearing expensive clothing.
Although its odd that you mention that when Jesus commanded his disciples to not take any thing but one garment, no money, etc and preach the gospel.
It would seem you have Jesus in the Armani dictating that his followers have to wear wrangler...
