visitors

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

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

'sex appeal wearing masks' is the wordplay.
'sex appeal' becomes 'it'.
'wearing' becomes 'visors' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'masks' is an insertion indicator (mask can mean to cover up or conceal).
'it' inserted within 'visors' is 'VISITORS'.

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for visitors that I've seen before include "Holiday-makers or guests" , "Callers or tourists" , "away team" , "They call socially or on business" , "'Callers, guests (8)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
