And that may be just fine for those who can grab MD and such and do their magic. As a purely end-user, that is definitely not me,  especially if Antonia cannot be used in the Fitting Room like other figures.

Some things work quite well in the fitting room. Some work okay with a bit of tweaking. For example, the socks I made work perfectly as long as they end no higher than just above the calf. Maybe over-knee socks will also work nicely with a weight-mapped knee. We'll see. Shorts and panties work well with some editing of the weight maps. With upper body garments, the front usually fits well but there are sometimes problems in the upper back. Probably something that could be fixed or worked around. What doesn't work in the fitting room can be taken to the cloth room.

I tend to make pretty high-res meshes in MD because in MD, that's what looks best. The fitting room does not like high-res meshes very much, so that's frustrating. I also like clothes to be really tight to the body were that would be the case for real clothes, but that of course increases the risk of poke-though. So, one might say that I'm expecting too much from the fitting room.

The thing is, if I am to make Poser ready clothes routinely, I need to find a workflow that's easy for me, because my motivation is pretty low. It's not that I don't care about end-users, it's more that I don't care about convincing end-users. If you're an end-user looking for a specific kind of garment for a render, I'll be several orders of magnitude more inclined to make one for you that works well in Poser than I am based on the vague concept that if there were more content for her, more people might pick her up.
