Get the wrong idea about tailored denim perhaps (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

misapprehend

'get the wrong idea' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'tailored denim perhaps' is the wordplay.
'tailored' is an anagram indicator (the letters are customised ).
'denim'+'perhaps'='denimperhaps'
'denimperhaps' anagrammed gives 'MISAPPREHEND'.

'about' is the link.

(Another definition for misapprehend that I've seen is " Get the wrong idea".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
