Garment for a maiden maybe? (8)
I believe the answer is:
overcoat
'garment for a maiden maybe?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'garment for a maiden maybe?' is the wordplay.
'garment' becomes 'coat' (coat is a kind of garment).
'for' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'a maiden maybe?' becomes 'over' (I've seen this in other clues).
'coat' put after 'over' is 'OVERCOAT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for overcoat that I've seen before include "Evocator (anag.)" , "Heavy outer garment" , "warmer" , "Outerwear" , "Maybe Ulster" .)
