Pageant prize (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiara

'pageant prize' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tiara that I've seen before include "Jewelled, ornamental headgear" , "expensive headwear" , "Woman's headdress for very formal occasions" , "Half a crown!" , "Jewelled coronet" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the LA Times, the Newsday and the USA Today.
