Masters' shirt seams partly turned back (7)
I believe the answer is:
maestri
'masters' shirt seams partly turned back' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'shirt seams partly turned back' is the wordplay.
'partly' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'turned back' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'irtseam' can be found hidden inside 'shirt seams'.
'irtseam' back-to-front is 'MAESTRI'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for maestri that I've seen before include "masters" , "Distinguished conductors" , "Experts" , "leading musicians" , "Top conductors" .)
