Etymology
The word clothing comes from cloth ('cloth') and clothe ('to dress'), so it also grew to mean the items that 'dress' an avatar or character in a game. A helpful way to remember this is to think of virtual clothing as doing the same job of changing how someone looks, even when it is not physical.
