Bare acts get suited in confusion (8)
I believe the answer is:
nudities
'bare acts' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
'get suited in confusion' is the wordplay.
'get' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'confusion' indicates anagramming the letters.
'suited' next to 'in' is 'suitedin'.
'suitedin' anagrammed gives 'NUDITIES'.
