I never heard the expression "glad clothes" in my life. You could say Sunday Best but we usually say dress up clothes or we would say, "I am going to get dressed up."

"So what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you"

Judy Friedkin, the song 'Rock around the clock' says, "put your glad rags on and join me hon'..."
That song must be 50 years old! It is nothing we ever said nor that I ever heard. Of course ,I heard the song many times and probably never listened to the words. It was just a creative expression in a song, just like we would never say to put any kind of rags on unless kidding around. Poetic license! It is quite a happy expression "put your glad clothes on..." It creates a picture in your mind of having a blast at a party. I like it . However it is not used.
