dadt may be right. Adding all the vertices to the constrained group will do the job, though the jewelry then will deform a little. You could also add all vertices of the jewelry to the rigid decorated group - except for three vertices on the outer edge of the jewelry prop, those should be constrained. That MIGHT work. The best solution using the cloth room would probably the following: - select her collar; - fire up the Grouping tool; - create a new group; - select all polygons on the collar that will be (partially) covered by your jewelry prop; - create a prop from this group; - export the prop plus the jewelry as Wavefront .OBJ; - reimport this prop; - make the "breast part" of the prop fully transparent; - parent the prop to your figure's collar; - create a new cloth simulation; - assign all vertices of the "breast part" of the prop to the Constrained group; - assign all vertics of the "jewelry part" of the prop to the Rigid Decorated group; - and calculate. The jewelry should now keep its shape AND follow the breast on all its movements and deformations.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
