'elegant part' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'of tivoli theatre' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'LITHE' can be found hidden inside 'tivoli theatre'.

Can you help me to learn more?
