Bedraggled Stoic came in to see beauty consultant in New York (11)
I believe the answer is:
cosmetician
'beauty consultant in new york' is the definition.
(US term for a beautician)
'bedraggled stoic came in' is the wordplay.
'bedraggled' indicates an anagram.
'stoic'+'came'+'in'='stoiccamein'
'stoiccamein' anagrammed gives 'COSMETICIAN'.
'to see' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
