Dancing after she gets down (8)
I believe the answer is:
feathers
'down' is the definition.
(down can mean bird feathers)
'dancing after she' is the wordplay.
'dancing' is an anagram indicator.
'after'+'she'='aftershe'
'aftershe' with letters rearranged gives 'FEATHERS'.
'gets' is the link.
(Other definitions for feathers that I've seen before include "growth of birds" , "Aids to flight" , "Plumages" , "Possibly down" , "Covering for birds" .)
