It may well be that they are able to choose whether or not to retain their 
clothing.  After all, Professor McGonagall transformed herself into a cat and 
back in front of a class of third year Gryffindors (including Our Hero) and 
nobody mentioned clothes, one way or another. Despite their concern over 
Trelawney's recent silliness, you'd think SOMEONE would notice if, well, YOU 
know ... 

Also, both McGonagall and Skeeter are described as having markings that 
resemble their glasses that they wear in human form.
