Dark red clothing staff put on (7)
I believe the answer is:
produce
'put on' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'dark red clothing staff' is the wordplay.
'dark red' becomes 'puce' (I've seen this in another clue).
'clothing' is an insertion indicator (some letters cover up or clothe others).
'staff' becomes 'rod' (both can mean a pole or stick).
'puce' going around 'rod' is 'PRODUCE'.
(Other definitions for produce that I've seen before include "Create - crop" , "Bring forth or yield" , "Make, manufacture" , "Fresh fruit and veg for market - crop due (anag)" , "Bear" .)
