So I will leave you with that and a link explaining mesh body attachments ,ore fully. So I know this is a short post and there are no image examples though I am working on these mesh appliers and need to finish adding them to my previous works.
If you like my blogs and would like to show it feel free to purchase and item or hit up my Tip Jar for either Badabong Bigbear or Elliana Inkpen as every little bit helps. My store in world you will be able to see many parts of my work in progress and it is located here I say this as in my testing of mesh that is the first obvious part when designing and fiddling with clothing. looking up the dress of a female avi she will appear invisible and you may not be able to see her underwear or anything just other inner working of the mesh. One thing I did not mention and that is that all of this may need 3 or 4 deformer shapes for each piece of clothing and as well you also may need alpha maps that make the body parts invisible.
I also have starter another item for a male avatar and will make many more. which are the bump maps and then as well I did add a specular and a material map which will then be used as a layer in some of the textures I use for the bra. So where I left off I was getting ready to bake maps in zbrush for the normals. Yet I am not going to stop sharing workflows, I am telling you this because some parts of the workflow may change slightly.

Also in the last two weeks second life has released a new viewer update and this may have included support for the new bones and such yet I am nt suire of this yet, but as a builder and a designer this is going to change our work as well change our use of avastar till Gaia Cherry has a chance to update the plugin. I have some ideas for solutions yet they are in the future and I have a contract to build other items first before I can do this. This means you cannot really put the mesh over the mesh. From use of alphas and the Second Life alpha glitches to the fact they are edited resized and changed all the time so there is no default for them what so ever. My findings are that Mesh boobs and butts are and issue with mesh clothing.
