Gild (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

embellish

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">gild</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that gild is a more specific form of embellish)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for embellish that I've seen before include "Ornament, improve by adding detail" , "Adorn" , "Make more attractive by adding ornament" , "Add ornamental details, make more colourful" , "Beautify" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
