Crossword Genius

Big and beautiful! (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

handsome

This clue is a double definition.

'big' is the first definition.
('handsome' can be a synonym of 'big')

'beautiful' is the second definition.
('handsome' can be similar in meaning to 'beautiful')

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for handsome that I've seen before include "Attractive, liberal" , "Well-proportioned" , "Striking" , "Fit" , "Good-looking, as a male say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
