I would be surprised if Fusion can do a good job of realistically folding, stretching, and draping fabric. Some years ago I worked in an industrial cut-and-sew shop and we looked at just that sort of fabric modeling software. It does exist, it's used by firms like automobile seat manufacturers to predict the behavior of upholstered seats. The material properties for the fabrics probably need to be determined by your own bench testing, and the learning curve to use that sort of software is pretty steep.
Most solid modeling software can fold and unfold sheet metal that does not deform elastically or plastically, but they can't even come close to showing you how a flat piece of cotton knit makes the curved shoulder on a tee shirt, or what shape a pillow might be after you stuff it with foam.
I'm curious why you are interested in doing this sort of highly advanced property modeling for a camper build. When the materials are cheap and you aren't mass producing things, cut-and-try is so quick and easy.
