Charge made by international male model (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impose

'charge' is the definition.
(I know that impose is a type of charge)

'by international male model' is the wordplay.
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'international' becomes 'i' (abbreviation eg in IMF).
'male' becomes 'm' (common abbreviation).
'model' becomes 'pose' (model can mean to pose).
'i'+'m' is 'im'.
'im'+'pose'='IMPOSE'

'made' is the link.

(Other definitions for impose that I've seen before include "Put burden or tax on" , "Force upon or intrude" , "Force (something) to be done or accepted" , "Decree" , "Force on or take advantage of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
