Loincloths do this after being adjusted (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dhotis

'loincloths' is the definition.
(dhoti is a kind of loincloth)

'do this after being adjusted' is the wordplay.
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'being adjusted' indicates an anagram.
'do'+'this'='dothis'
'dothis' with letters rearranged gives 'DHOTIS'.

(Other definitions for dhotis that I've seen before include "Loincloths worn by Hindu men" , "Indian garments" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
