'rose remarkably' is the definition.
'leapt' can be an answer for 'rose' (to leap up is to rise suddenly). I am unsure of the 'remarkably' bit.

'lizzie's jacket fitting' is the wordplay.
'jacket' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (the letters worn by the word as a 'jacket' are use).
'fitting' becomes 'apt' (both mean appropriate).
'lizzie' with its centre taken out is 'le'.
'le'+'apt'='LEAPT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for leapt that I've seen before include "Bounded, sprang" , "Took off" , "Made spring" , "gone up dramatically" , "Vaulted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
