Crossword Genius

Grows into suits (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

becomes

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'grows' is the first definition.

'suits' is the second definition.
('become' can be a synonym of 'suit')

'into' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for becomes that I've seen before include "Changes into" , "Undergoes a change" , "Gets" , "Turns into" , "Suits, befits" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
