AFAICT, *NONE* of the clothing words have a place for "being worn
by...".  See http://vlasisku.lojban.org/vlasisku/taxfu , wich seems
to list all of them.

{taxfu} has such a place, but it's ... umm, I'm not sure what that
tense is called; intentional or something?, but it's a place for the
sort of person that *could* wear the thing, not the person that
actually *is* wearing it.

This means the *only* way to talk about people wearing clothing is
with {dasni}.

WTF is the point of having place structures if I can't say {mi te
pastu}?

:P :P :P
