This room has been driving me nuts as well! Rather than anything as complicated as a dressed figure, all I've been trying to do is get the cloth plane to drape over a sofa prop like a sheet or throw. When I get home tonight after work, I'm going to try your steps on that...if you think they'll work! Once I get that set-up, is there any way I can then save the sheet in its draped state? If you haven't guessed, I'm not up to doing any animations yet. Just still renders. And thanks! So far this is the clearest, most straight-forward tutorial on the cloth room I've seen yet. A few more "whys" behind the settings you use would be nice, but if it works, then that's all that matters right now!
