Dress right for Bob (6)
I believe the answer is:
robert
'bob' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'dress right' is the wordplay.
'dress' becomes 'robe' (robing is a kind of dressing).
'right' becomes 'rt' (abbreviation as in Rt Hon- the Right Honourable).
'robe'+'rt'='ROBERT'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for robert that I've seen before include "Boy" , "- Browning, Eng. poet" , "---17 ac. 23, explorer" , "-- Browning, nineteenth century poet" , "- Edward Lee, US Confederate general" .)
