Have a good look wearing half-glasses (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inspect

'have a good look' is the definition.

'wearing half-glasses' is the wordplay.
'wearing' becomes 'in' (wear in (and 'in' is fashionable)).
'half' means to take half the letters.
'glasses' becomes 'spectacles' ('spectacles' can be a synonym of 'glasses').
'spectacles' cut in half is 'spect'.
'in'+'spect'='INSPECT'

(Other definitions for inspect that I've seen before include "Look critically at" , "Scrutinise" , "Go over" , "Look at closely" , "Scrutinize, audit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
