Chatting, holding beret (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hat

'beret' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'chatting holding' is the wordplay.
'holding' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'HAT' can be found hidden inside 'chatting'.

(Other definitions for hat that I've seen before include "Bowler maybe" , "Headdress" , "Item of headgear" , "opera?" , "Accessory" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
