Clothing? Tear it badly (6)
I believe the answer is:
attire
'clothing?' is the definition.
(I know that clothing can be written as attire)
'tear it badly' is the wordplay.
'badly' indicates an anagram.
'tear'+'it'='tearit'
'tearit' with letters rearranged gives 'ATTIRE'.
(Other definitions for attire that I've seen before include "Wear" , "'Dress, garb (6)'" , "Garments" , "Habit" , "Clothing - tear it (anag)" .)
