From Blender to TKA
If you are totally confused where to start making clothes, this might help.
This covers the most confusing part of getting things exported from blender, importing to unreal, packing a mod.
Sorry for the silent video, narrating would take too much time. There are timestamps in the comments, and I recommend watching any other tutorial about importing meshes to Unreal 4. The only different part would be mod table setup.

Note that the next step after this would be to make multiresolution mesh for tube top, sculpt more details, import into substance painter, bake high detail normals like wrinkles, add nice textures, make damage textures, make correct material in unreal.

The video has some known problems:
- I had to cut the clip but then I left a clip where I load into the game and my top is already worn by Jodi
- I forgot to change row name in Mod_ClothesGroup. Just follow Johny's instructions.

Update:
- Go here for the guide by the dev: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3360997448

Finished mod:

Baking normal maps on low detail mesh with Substance Painter.

I tried to hurry and still it took an hour. I won't cut it, you can simply skip forward my painful struggle with sculpting.

Part 3 - Fixing weights.

This is me fixing one particular and common problem with weights.
Most of it is just intuition.

Fixed clipping for bigger chest by adding some edge loops around chest and inflating mesh a bit in sculpt mode

Just in case you access the link and it gets confusing cuz you can't read Chinese for ♥♥♥♥, just type "jodi" and confirm to get access to the file. :steammocking:

This would be better to put in the steam guide section instead of discussions. Especially since you have multiple parts that are broken up by other's replies to this post.

Also then others and myself can just favorite your guide for easy reference.

No point, this ain't in text format anyway.
