I just tested that in Filesystem v3 and there decomposed path parts are 
still of type filesystem::path.

So my code looks something like this in v3.
fs::path tmp("/foo/bar/path");
for(fs::path::const_iterator it = tmp.begin();
        it != tmp.end(); ++it)
{
        std::string tmpS = (*it).string();
        std::wstring tmpWs = (*it).wstring();
}

So maybe switching to v3 (if your code is still v2) might be a solution 
(since it's anyway the default).
