Yes, you want an applier HUD to apply clothing textures to a mesh body. If the body is modifiable, it is possible to change textures manually but it's not something you want to do since the HUD should be readily available. Omega developer kits with "blank" applier HUDs are quite cheap and most mesh body creators give away basic developer kits with blank appliers for free.

But you also need the UUID for the texture you want to apply and that can be a bit tricky if you're talking about converting old system clothing. Unless you have full perm copies of the textures, the only legal way is to ask the creator and there's nto much chance they'll be willing or even able to help. As for the illegal ways, I hope you don't expect us to give advice about that on this forum. Let me jsut say that it used to be very easy but last year LL made a rather significant change and today it's a rather complicated process. It's not really worth the bother even if we ignore the legal aspect of it.
