oddly

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

'not even stylishly' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'not even stylishly' is the wordplay.
'not even' becomes 'odd' ('odd' is the opposite to 'even').
'stylishly' becomes 'ly' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'odd'+'ly'='ODDLY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oddly that I've seen before include "not in the usual way" , "Weirdly" , "In a peculiar way" , "Unusually" , "In a strange way" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
