Clothes in place, say, the other way round (5)

I believe the answer is:

getup

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'clothes in' is the definition.
'getup' can be an answer for 'clothes' (thesaurus). I'm not sure about the 'in' bit.

'say the other way round' is the wordplay.
'say' becomes 'eg' (both can mean 'for example').
'the other way' is a reversal indicator.
'round' becomes 'tup' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'eg' backwards is 'ge'.
'ge'+'tup'='GETUP'

'place' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for getup that I've seen before include "clothes > stand" , "Study" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
