shell suit

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'casual outfit' is the definition.
'shell suit' can be an answer for 'outfit' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'casual' bit.

'explosive to look good on' is the wordplay.
'explosive' becomes 'shell' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to look good on' becomes 'suit' (I've seen this in another clue).
'shell'+'suit'='SHELL-SUIT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for shell suit that I've seen is " Outfit".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
