In my quest to diversify character attire, my attempt at clothing swaps hit a roadblock. After delving into numerous tutorials, it became apparent that successful wardrobe changes often involve the use of software like Marvelous Designer, Blender, or UDraper.

Venturing into the realm of virtual mall clothing resources, I experimented with skeletal meshes for outfit alterations. Unfortunately, this approach proved unsuitable as it led to structural issues, mainly due to the mismatch between the body type, skeleton, and metahuman.

After careful consideration, the ultimate decision was to incorporate props onto metahuman and proceed with animation.
