I just tried it again with one of the free Optitex dresses.   I loaded S4 and the dress and adjusted and then with the dress selected I loaded a wind force object.   I increased the range and moved it in the direction I wanted the wind to blow.   At this point I think the tutorial you posted was not so clear.   The dress has to be within the cone but if the narrow part of the cone is too close to the dress there will be less of a wind effect.  Notice how the dress falls into the wider range.  

I changed my frames to 20 and on frame 15 I posed S4 and then went back to frame 1 and into the cloth room where I clothified and ran the simulation.   As you can see the dress is being blown in the direction the wind force object is pointed at.   To be honest I haven't tried with any other intersecting objects so I don't know what, if any, bugs there are in PP2010 but for the purpose you describe of having a pose with the dress blown it works.   I'm not sure what you mean by  "only would like the beautiful wrinkles in the cloth from being blown".   If you want some parts unaffected then I suppose you'll have to constrain them. 

I'm posting the images one at a time since I don't know how I can upload more than one so bear with me :)
