In one of the good ROTJ screen captures you can see it attached under both studs. Then later you can't even see that it is attached at all. When he is face down on the skiff it isn't attached to the shoulders it is draped between his backplate and jet pack.
I attach mine to the outer stud and then loop it over the inner stud through a larger hole. So it appears to be attached to both.

There is one supertrooper pic that makes it look like it is just shoved somewhere behind the backplate and then I saw a few ESB type pics with it clearly not attached to the studs and one with it attached to the outer I think. I will put a few up later when I'm done work. If it isn't to the studs I'm not sure where else it would go? Especially my towel as it will drag on the ground for sure

I'm pretty certain you're safe that way on a SE Fett Craig.

That said and to add more confusion into the deal....I just looked at the gallery for S/E fetts and the pic of the ANH S/E shows Boba by the falcon and it looks like it isn't attached anywhere.....it looks tucked in somewhere behind the jetpack ??
Weird ??

After they decided to transform the Supertrooper suit into Boba Fett, they also added the cape, the wookie braids and the girth belt (and of course the color scheme and the weathering). The white prototype suit had the cape attached to the left jetpack hook (barely visible):
The first suit was the Pre-Pro #1 v1 which had the cape tied behind the neck:
The Pre-Pro #1 v2 had one end of the cape attached with a buckle to the jetpack (somewhere above the left hook), while the other end was attached to the right side of the collar with another buckle:
The Pre-Pro #2 had the cape stuffed under the left inner side of the collar/backplate:
The Pre-Pro #3 had the cape attached to the jetpack, as this suit had the Pre-Pro #1 gauntlets, jetpack and cape:
The ESB Hero cape was attached to the outer left shoulder stud and the nearest end stuffed/attached somewhere to the left jetpack hook:

The ROTJ Hero had the cape attached to the outer left shoulder stud in the Jabba's palace scenes, while in most of the stunt scenes the cape was attached randomly, more exactly stuck under the back plate or attached to the left jetpack hook:
The ANH SE had the cape stuck under the inner side of the back plate:
The ROTJ SE had it the same way as the ANH SE, but attached to the outer left shoulder stud in the promo shots:

Thanks for the kind comments. Regarding the Supertrooper cape I based my suppositions on these images:
You can clearly see that the cape comes from behind the left shoulder bell and not from the collar plate. For a strong proof I did the following to this image (in the unaltered image you can barely see the cape's end):
