Ok so you guys all know me by now...the annoying one. I know I do apologize for asking this over and over. I keep trying to fix it with morphclothes program but what is happening is the program is making the clothes lose its realism like stretch marks that sort of thing.
Can someone please show me how to fix this and how I can conform my clothes over my models? My models are a bit more well endowed so I'm really having difficulty. This is so hard learning a new program.

OK, you just gave us the missing piece of the puzzle.
What follows are my clearly labeled opinions and experiences. Others may offer other advice.
Issue #1: Most conforming clothing was not modelled to look "right" with generously endowed women. Especially if you have used add-ons to enhance the curves. To reference an old joke, the endowed girls have curves in places where most girls don't even have places!
An effect that I often see trying to use conforming clothing with a large breasted model is that the top folds under the breasts rather than "tenting" over them.
If this is the effect you are seeing, I have an answer for you, although you won't like it.
Dynamic clothing.
I ran into this trying to get a bra to fit one of my ladies who could not find a conformer up to the job. Here's how to do it.
Go to frame 30 and pose your character as you wish. Mark this as a key frame.
Go to frame 1 and zero all body morphs.
Load the DYNAMIC (NOT conforming... they are different!) clothing item. MAKE SURE THERE IS NO POKETHRU!
Go to the cloth room and clothify the dynamic item.
Set it to collide with the shoulders, chest and abdomen.
Run the simulation.
Result: Clothing that fits a girl with lots of assets.
If you don't "get" this, feel free to siteemail me. I'll be happy to help you.

Alright so I have to learn how to make my own clothing. All the money wasted on this stuff. sigh. Well maybe not totally. Not all my girls will be well endowed. Just mainly one. And yes its the morphclothes program.

The problem is that many vendors do not build all the morphs into conforming clothing. I use (on occasion) the free Ultimate Breast morphs and absolutely NO conforming clothes fit.
There are utilities that will try to make figure morphs into clothing morphs, but if that is not working you are back to one of the following.
dynamic cloth and the cloth room.
magnets
3 Morph brush
4.Modelling application
To clarify, conforming items conform to the skeleton (rigging) of the character, not to the outer skin. They need the morphs added to them to match a morphed character.
For V4 you also need to apply the magnetise pose to get a proper fit.

sigh Guess I'm going to need tutorials or something to help me master this program. I have only brushed the surface of this program it seems.

I tend to "cut the Gordian knot" and make my own figure (not for uploading!, I know about copyright) from the garment and parts of its wearer. For example, someone uploaded a conforming lab coat. So I made a model using the labcoat and parts of the Poser 4 Businessman, gave it a copy of the Businessman's CR2 file with the object file lines redirected, and checked the result's angle settings, and called it Labcoatman.

Mark you mentioned magnetise pose...what and where exactly in Poser is that?

V4 contains magnets. Some clothes work better with her if you use a magnetize pose that came with V4.
Love esther
I aim to update it about once a month. Oh, and it's free!
