dumbest

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'your smartest clothes? that's extremely stupid' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'tip dirt on' is the wordplay.
'tip' becomes 'mbe' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'dirt' becomes 'dust' (dust is a kind of dirt).
'on' means one lot of letters goes inside another (as in clothing 'on' a person).
'mbe' going inside 'dust' is 'DUMBEST'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dumbest that I've seen before include "Very stupid" , "Thickest" .)
