"As an aside, it's also possible to create the dynamic parts as parented props - parented to a body part of the conforming cloth. Actually, the setup is easier this way." That's what I was reaching for - you got there 1st Steven! I hadn't even considered make a hybrid a single mesh (I don't have any experience with the bones room yet, so it wasn't an option..) However, your 2nd pic, with the rings as conforming and the dress dynamic, strikes me as a possibly better way to go than making the rings "hard decorated", especially as the cloth room can have problems with things like rings...
