I'll tell you what is the best way to vendorhood for you. Make the outfit for Dawn and transfer it to DS with a simple export/import. Well inside DS you can morph it into a V6 garment with a clone, which take 10 min to make (a onetime operation). All morphs and parameters setting will come through. Sell it and be happy. In this way you make cloth for V6 by working in Poser to 95%.
And, as a by-product, you also have a Dawn version which you can do what you want with.
I never claimed to be a pro or master of maya or anything else. sorry if you got that impression, as I've never implied anything of the sort, at least not deliberately. I'm no better than anyone else here.
I'm just a modeler, that's all. My standards for mesh design are high because I study anatomy and topology for rigging, cause I have to in order to be at least a somewhat competent character artist some day. And yes I do expect perfection, at least from myself if not from anyone else.
I don't own V5 or V6, and I barely know crap about DS, I'm still learning it in my spare time. I have Genesis and G2M/F with some face and body morphs. I don't have the clones.
And yeah, sorry but I like working with at least somewhat attractive figures. I've tried working with Dawn, but she just reminds me of Princess Vespa's stunt double every time I look at her. I was working on a whole winter queen outfit and scene for her for the contest that was running, and had intended on putting the whole set up for sale after that contest was done, but I never finished it. Maybe I will at some point.
