A nudist, though not the right type to be? (8)

I believe the answer is:

unsuited

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

'a nudist though not the right type' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'be?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'be?' could be 'suit' (suiting is a kind of being) and 'suit' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for unsuited that I've seen before include "incompatible" , "Mismatched" , "United us, not being harmonious" , "United us, being not fit for" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
