Cover with blue carpet (5,4)

I believe the answer is:

dress down

(Other definitions for dress down that I've seen before include "Scold - don't wear best clothes" , "Wear informal attire" , "Maybe keep tie off" , "Severely reprimand; be informal" , "Put on casual clothes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
