There are these things that someone made a while back (or maybe several someones) called quick suits, that, if I'm not entirely mistaken, are free to use for creating clothing. they're basically wraps that go around the original figure geometry that you can modify to create clothing. they don't have heads or hands but most have feet. you can find them in the free stuff section (or use to you could). might have to look around at some other sites for them. And its not impossible to create your own if need be, just takes some time.
E.D. Edit: There's another method, that i've been experimenting with, that might work for those using P5. I got the idea from someone else a few weeks ago that created a small halter-top type thing for v3, and i've been trying to expand on the same idea. if i can remember the name of the person that created it... You follow his steps, but instead of using the prop that he created, you create your own, to cover the entire body, or at least the whole part of the body that you're trying to make clothing for, then run it through the cloth room. Its sort of like shrink-wrapping the figure. then export the "shrink-wrap" mesh into your modeling program and modify it there. That way you don't have to worry about using anybody else's mesh and upsetting anyone, and you can do whatever you want with it. The cloth room is also a good way of making clothes that will be conforming, things like skirts, loin cloths, capes, etc. that might be a bit difficult to model on your own. E.D.
