Detailed Rigged Clothes. How do you do it? Any tips?

Usually I make a low-res version, rig, then subdvide and add minor details.
but it's much harder to rig or add/fix things after it's subdivided. Because of this, my clothes are always average.
Copying weights from low to high polys also results in a bad weighted mesh.

Should I really just go through the slow process of rigging the high poly version of my clothes?

Just as a matter of interest is this for a SL build?, I'm asking because if its high detailed its normally made for SL and their mesh forum might be a good place to ask these questions

zsketch is designed mostly for that purpose

Please stop with the normal map nonsense.
Not everything has to be a low poly model for a game, for some things you actually want a fully rigged high poly model.

@OP: you should rig a lower poly version, then subdivide and transfer the weights, then smooth out the rig by weight painting. If you are using max the skin utilities are very useful for exporting a rig to a skin mesh object, which you can turbosmooth (the weighting will be turbosmoothed as well).
