"Or am I dreaming too much?" Basically :) You MIGHT have some luck taking an item into the cloth room, updating the mesh shape and then working it back into ac onforming item using the support files (CR2 etc) it originally came with... but to be honest I think it would be too much of a pain. Use the tailor if that's what you reallyw ant to do. I am finding that Dynamic cloth is VERY, very useful - the amount of time dynamics takes on my hardware is small and it is much less thanthe time it took to get conforming clothing to fit even remotely well.
