Papal topper (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiara

'papal topper' 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 headpiece" , "Jewelled head wear" , "Jewelled hair-band" , "Half a crown!" , "Ornamental head gear" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Newsday.
