It is permissible to go out with a woman who is immodestly dressed (mutabarrijah). She should be advised and guided. A person is not held accountable for the sin of another, as Allah Almighty says: "Every soul, for what it has earned, is retained." And the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, no offender commits an offense except against himself. Indeed, no offender commits an offense against his child, nor does a child commit an offense against his parent." The advice should be given gently and kindly.
