Crease party clothes (3-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dog-ear

'crease' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'party clothes' is the subsidiary indication.
'party' becomes 'do' (do is a kind of party).
'clothes' becomes 'gear' (I've seen this before).
'do'+'gear'='dogear'

(Other definitions for dog-ear that I've seen before include "Fold on page's corner" , "Crease in book page like canine appendage" , "Turned-over page corner" , "Fold down a corner (of a page)" , "Corner of a page turned down to mark your place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
