I wish someone would create a phantom "clothes shaping" figure that would work in Wardrobe Wizard, or maybe a set of such figures to conform various clothing meshes to the shape of clothes hanging on hangers, hanging on hooks, draped over a chair or bed, crumpled onto the floor, folded and pinned (like some laundries do shirts).  Even better, a figure or figures to reshape clothes to shapes as if they were being removed, like the DAZ pants down morph in the Freak GymRat sweat pants.

I'd like to do pics of a typical bedroom closet with various poser clothes hanging, jackets on hooks, fresh laundry on shelves, discarded shirts draped over a chair,  pants being stepped out of, a skirt hem being held up to show a tattoo on a but-cheek, etc, etc, etc. . . .

Actually, it's been a while since I've had time to play with Wardrobe Wizard, and I may be mis-remembering it's considerable capabilities.

Just thought such a thing would be a really super way to convert existing Poser clothing to demonstrate more realistic real-world appearance in a wider variety of real-world situations, regardless of the morph-sets built in by their original vendor.

I agree on the need for this. I don't own WW, and I don't know hard it would be to expand it in this way, but I've often wished for some way to morph or otherwise shape clothing just as you've described.  For example, it's very difficult to have a figure holding a piece of clothing and have that clothing affected by gravity properly.

For clothes on a hangar, couldn't you reduce the Zscale and parent them to the hanger?

You may be better off simply draping in the Cloth Room. That is how I created this image.
