Maya and Cloe 3D and almost all fashion design software have it for decades already. Niche and fascinating software. Check out some demos.

Cool stuff in software you don't even know exists:)

Of course cloth sims of varying fidelity are everywhere. Even games have had cloth sims for decades at this point.

But it is also something that remains a research problem how to do efficiently and with good results; pretty much every year in siggraph you see couple of new papers around cloth sims. For example this year we got this https://youtu.be/d9TZhtXeMio
