I asked this question on Daz3d. I only got one response and the person recommend the very thing I said didn't work. So I'll ask here.

As shown in the attached image, Auto Follow creates these weird V impressions in Genesis 2 dresses when I use the thigh thickness morphs or the Victoria 4 body morph. I have tried Sickleyield's Clothing Smoothers but, it doesn't remove the issue. It was never designed for those morphs.

It's very distracting. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Thank you.

If the SY clothing smoothing modifier doesn't work, you really need to look at adding a custom FBM for the dress to compensate for the morph distortions. What your seeing is the join where the hip and upper thigh influences meet on the dresses shape. 

Which isn't going to be a simple process involving external 3d modellers.  

This is a common problem with autofit.  I have seen this a lot with V4 clothes on Genesis or G2F.

You can send the dress in Hexagon or some other modeling tool and smooth the dress out, creating a morph to fix it.

Not sure what level you are at so I will put it up. I come across this the other day come with some merch res I had purchased and it pretty much covers aspects of your situation.

If you type the title listed below into YouTube search you will see a tutorial she cuts a dress up into a skirt and top (Starts of in ZBrush but none of the work is carried out in there she actually uses blender). covers the prep export, repairs, smoothing and first steps of conforming bring back into Daz it may help

Thanks for the tips. It was very helpful. I many use Poser and the DSON importer. There I use the Morph Brush. I have Hexagon, so I will try to create some fixing morphs with it.

Fixing up an outfit in a modeling program is a good solution, but I just picked up a NEW set of Auto-Fit templates that really help. Check out the following item over at DAZ.
Wear Them All - Autofitting Clones and Clothing Smoothers for Genesis 3 Female(s)
I have used the SY templates while moving through the G1, G2F cycle, but this new one is much better. It is not perfect, but the problem with this specific issue are greatly reduced.

Overall, still a good smooth design

One other option is to use the D-Form tool. Note the effect of a D-Form can be weight painted, so you get exactly what you want when using it, it can also be turned into a morph.
