SL is made up mostly by meshes, covered or wrapped by digital images called textures.
All avatars come from only one mesh, so basically, everybody is one and the same. That mesh is the foundation for clothing, and some other important stuff, like your skin.
How to design clothing for an avatar
To design clothing for an avatar you will have to use the so called 'templates'. Templates are nothing more than mappings of the mesh. They give you the exact areas in which you can trace, apply color and add a bunch of effects to simulate volume.
They are a two dimensional representation of a three dimensional object. Light and volume is lost in the templates...That will be for you to apply.
