Edit: got the dress etc but got major clipping on the legs and strange folding like extra material on the ground. Body slide doesn't cure it. Any help out there?? Please??
"strange folding like extra material on the ground" is from my experience an indicator that required physics mod is not installed or enabled, invisible outfit usually means that it was not built in bodyslide.
As someone who does not use physics or a skeleton, because of the extra headache and steps in even just starting your game each time you play, I just want to say I am almost CERTAIN Macie is correct on both counts.
Sadly, a lot of clothing authors just assume things, like people have the correct physics/animations/skeleton.... though not so much here.... and only list SOME of the prerequisites. Thus I have a lot of experience in finding clothing that does this for me, as someone who knows (yes KNOWS, it is a FACT), that simple OG UNP is the BEST and only body needed :p
But I am pretty sure this author was clear in the prerequisites that this mod needed SMP-HDT, I am writing through a tsunami of tears, as I write this, because it was so listed and thus precludes me from acquiring this outfit.
ALWAYS check the 'Requirements' tab. Sometimes, as I said, some authors, do not list things, or bury the requirements half way down in the description page, but this time, it is RIGHT THERE in the Requirements.
Love the design and the texture. Absolutely one of my favorite outfit on Nexus. Still the skirt physics looks weird, the front side is too floaty while the back side is not floaty enough. Tried tweaking xml file for hours but received little improvement (I suck at these). I suppose tweaking the xml won't be enough, perhaps you need to change the bones as well. If anyone is interested in improving this amazing dress maybe you can take a look at [ELLE] Abyss. It's similar in shape with a more realistic physics effect.
Lol I tried opening this in Outfit Studio to see if there was a way to attach the bottom of the front so it doesnt randomly fly out to the right and it is so far above my skill level its insane. I was trying to add horizontal bones in the front to maybe keep it from stretching and instead sort of fly off to the left. Probably not even close to how you do it but I didnt really manage to accomplish anything and dont know how to link the bones to the mesh. How do people do this crap?!
Damn shame, I love this outfit but the flying front part is too annoying. Its like constantly floating forward and out to the right I presume due to some interaction with collision on the legs but I would rather have it not move in the front since I wouldnt really notice the clipping from behind my character anyway. Oh wells, maybe there will be an update someday or someone who knows what they are doing can fix it. :/
missing the actual textures. clothes are built and form to the characters so it's not a bodyslide issue, they're just flat purple from missing textures.
E: actually it seems like this just doesn't react well to being in a merge. turned the plugin back on and it works fine.

not something I have much experience with though.

(i use Faster HDT-SMP with Ultra Performance Config)
(It was first time me tweaking something with HDT, but looks decent enougth)

Unfortunately I believe I tried everything and can't prevent the heels from sinking in thr ground; Is anyone having this problem too?
