Develops liking for Calvin Klein? Assess situation (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
take stock
'assess situation' is the definition.
'take stock' can be an answer for 'assess' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'situation' bit.
'develops liking for calvin klein?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'for' could be 'to' (eg both can mean 'in the opinion of') and 'to' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for take stock that I've seen before include "How to start preparing soup" , "Appraise, assess" , "Review a situation - assess holdings" , "shop-lift" , "Make an appraisal" .)
