Oddly glitzy male with very big gadgets (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gizmos

'gadgets' is the definition.
('gizmo' can be a synonym of 'gadget')

'oddly glitzy male with very big' is the wordplay.
'oddly' indicates alternate letters.
'male' becomes 'm' (common abbreviation).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'very big' becomes 'os' (abbreviation for outsize).
The alternating letters of 'glitzy' are 'giz'.
'giz'+'m'+'os'='GIZMOS'

(Other definitions for gizmos that I've seen before include "Gadgets, contraptions (6)'" , "Useful gadgets" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
