Carrara is a bit of an oddity, I think the advertising I have seen for it does not cover it's full potential.

It is indeed a modelling application, certainly not restricted to lanscapes and the like.  In fact I haven't used it for that at all yet :)  A couple of the guys I work with use it more than I do, they create all sorts of things with it.

As I said I make my basic cloth meshes in 3D Coat, but use Carrara to add the finishing touches, like buttons and proper edges.  I have not tried it yet, but I am absolutely positive that I could make clothes from scratch in Carrara without any problems at all.  Especially as moving models to and from Poser while maintaining the scale and position is pretty easy.
