The garments conform because they have the same joint parameters and body part names as the figures. I would think that if one of the parts didn't have a corresponding part on the figure, it would not conform. The only problem is, I don't think any part of a conformed garment can be reposed once it's conformed to a figure even if it has no matching part to conform to. I guess this would take a bit of experimenting to know for sure. -JH.
