    Here is image of my PS screenshot. For defining pattern you need to open your pattern image, select it and Define a pattern

    Define an image as a preset pattern
    1. Use the Rectangle Marquee tool on any open image to select an area to use as a pattern. Feather must be set to 0 pixels. Note that large images may become unwieldy.
    2. Choose Edit > Define Pattern.
    3. Enter a name for the pattern in the Pattern Name dialog box.

     

    Do not forget to choose blend mode for you pattern layer or make it transparent

    You can use Adobe Photoshop as well Adobe Illustrator. The core of the thechics is to select the dress, apply mask and fill it with your pattern or you can als use your image layer and mask it. 

    Here is videeo tutorials for Adobe Photoshop. In Ps it easier than in Illustrator.

    To wholly replace one fabric with another, you need to remove the pattern in the first image. The fabric in the image has folds in it that create light and dark areas. There is no simple way to remove the pattern without also removing the light and dark areas. If you remove these, the pattern you replace it with will appear flat and not realistic.


    So essentially what you are saying is that the current problem cannot be solved using adobe CC tools.

    debopriyosanyal,

     

    I am afraid there is no easy way.

     

    It looks like a raster image, but even if it were image traced or something, with the body shape and all the folds there would be no simple transformation of one or more lengths of a (complete pattern of) fabric.
