Decorated blonde gets maze cracked (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emblazoned

'decorated' is the definition.
(emblazoning is a kind of decorating)

'blonde gets maze cracked' is the wordplay.
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'cracked' indicates anagramming the letters.
'blonde'+'maze'='blondemaze'
'blondemaze' anagrammed gives 'EMBLAZONED'.

(Other definitions for emblazoned that I've seen before include "Decorated with heraldic arms" , "Celebrated" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
