Friend made stressed jackets (2,5)
I believe the answer is:
de palma
'stressed jackets' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'friend made' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'friend' could be 'pal' (pal can mean a friend) and 'pal' is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'made' is 'dema' which is located in the left over letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
