Now click on "collision", a window open, click on "Add / remove" a 2nd window open containing the elements of your scene, check the items that the clothing should take into account, here the character and the ground on which the fabric will come naturally spread. Click OK to close this window. In the first window still open and to accelerate the draping check only the elements of the characters who will not come in collision with clothing (here hand and head). Then select "OK" to close this window.

To change the texture of clothes, back in pose" in workspace. Reposition the marker (yellow triangle) on the first frame of animation and apply the texture as usual. Reposition the marker on the last frame to find your poses and clothes draped

 

Warning, when you open a scene containing a dynamic clothing, the scene comes to the first frame, simply push the marker to the last frame to find the cloth draped.

 
Now you have draped the clothes on your character and you want to change it place in the scene (without changing the pose), now if you try to move the character only the character move, in order to move all (character and clothes) you need to parent your clothes draped to your character.
