Blue skirts from Amazon received by Sporty Spice, divine (10)
I believe the answer is:
melancholy
'blue' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'skirts from amazon received by sporty spice divine' is the wordplay.
'skirts from' means to remove the middle letters.
'received by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'sporty spice' becomes 'melc' (I've seen this in another clue).
'divine' becomes 'holy' (I've seen this in another clue).
'amazon' with its centre taken out is 'an'.
'an' going into 'melc' is 'melanc'.
'melanc'+'holy'='MELANCHOLY'
(Other definitions for melancholy that I've seen before include "Sadness, gloom" , "Cheerless" , "Long-lasting sadness" , "Depressed" , "[ODE] subject" .)
