Answer

You are right. Wear more clothes is not the way we would say that idea. We would say "you need to put on more layers" or "you need to bundle up." Another detail is that if you did want to use the first phrase it would be more accurate to say "wear more clothing" not "clothes." So I would say, "That model is wearing more clothing than the other one.  This is a subtlety between the words clothes and clothing.
