the best place to start ( i think) is to download the templates supplied by LL. Then play :D .

I open a new transparent layer in PS and then open one of the templates, say Upper Body. I drag the Overlay layer from the template onto my new transparant window and go to town. Either by drawing new stuff or by cutting and stretching etc a good pic of an item of clothing.

I just wing it and see how it goes. sometimes i get lucky and it turns out to be something wearable in world :D There are in depth tutorials to be found, in the forums and at large on the net. But, i am a seat of the pants sort of gal....

Good Luck!

Even better, get Chip's latest templates to play with. They are exceptionally helpful. :D

Then do what Versu said. :)
