It is possible. The edging and seams should be soft decorated groups, buttons should be rigid decorated groups. These groups can be closed meshes. One of my first experiments in creating dynamic clothes has buttons on the blouse and a zipper on the skirt, both rigid decorated. The buttons were made using a boolean difference of two cylinders - simple but effective.

hmann uses soft decorated groups for seam effects too.

Soft decorated groups are also very usable to make fastenings without connecting the mesh, allowing for open/close settings within the same clothing item. A trick I learned from Serge Marck.
