Oscar draped in feline fur (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

coat

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

'fur' is the definition.
(an animal's coat)

'oscar draped in feline' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'oscar' could be 'o' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'o' is present in the answer.
'feline' could be 'cat' (cat is a kind of feline) and 'cat' is located in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for coat that I've seen before include "Warm outerwear" , "Outer covering" , "Outer garment" , "Jacket" , "Apply layer" .)
