Part of some shimmering feature of lingerie? (4)
I believe the answer is:
mesh
'lingerie?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'part of some shimmering feature' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates a hidden word.
'MESH' is hidden in the letters of 'some shimmering feature'.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mesh that I've seen before include "Trap" , "Netting; engage" , "Interlaced structure" , "Crossed wires" , "Interconnected configuration" .)
