Extraordinary state in Texas originally most stylish (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nattiest

'most stylish' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'extraordinary state in texas originally' is the wordplay.
'extraordinary' is an anagram indicator.
'originally' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'texas' is 't'.
'state'+'in'='statein'
'statein' with letters rearranged gives 'natties'.
'natties'+'t'='NATTIEST'

(Another definition for nattiest that I've seen is " Most stylish".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
