Lordship’s terse, captures flower people (8)

I believe the answer is:

hipsters

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

'flower people' is the definition.
The definition suggests a plural noun which matches the answer.

'lordship's terse captures' is the wordplay.
'captures' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (I've seen 'captured' mean this).
'HIPSTERS' can be found hidden inside 'lordships terse'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hipsters that I've seen before include "trousers" , "She trips (anag.)" , "bottoms" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
