Diamonds could be made to fit (4)
I believe the answer is:
suit
'fit' is the definition.
(suiting is a kind of fitting)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for suit that I've seen before include "Do as you please!" , "Eg, hearts or clubs" , "Diamonds, for example" , "Legal action - courtship" , "clubs, for example" .)
