Placing object on parent

ForestBoy

Hello!

I have modelled a hat, and on the hat, there are roses. 

I exported the hat and the roses as separate OBJs.

When I imported the hat on Genesis 8 Female, it snapped right onto the head because I modelled the hat "on" the model in ZBrush.

However, when I import the roses, they are obviously placed at 0, 0 although I modelled them "on" the hat (in the same location), so they're at her feet.

I could set the roses' translation manually, but I'm not sure if that's what I should do.

 

Can anybody suggest how this should be handled?

Thank you.
