Next verse says: And tell the believing women to lower their gaze ( from looking at non Mahram men) and protect their private parts.(from sinful sexual acts).(Sura Noor, verse 31).

These orders aim preventing acts which can initiate or cause sinful sexual acts and maintaining the purity and piousness in the hearts of men and women when dealing with each other.
