Ready-to-wear accessory? (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

money belt

'accessory?' is the definition.
(money belt is a kind of accessory)

'ready-to-wear' is the wordplay.
'ready' becomes 'money' (I've seen this before).
'to wear' becomes 'belt' (belt is a kind of wear).
'money'+'belt'='MONEY BELT'

(Other definitions for money belt that I've seen before include "bucks are safe in it" , "Item worn to counter pickpockets" , "Cash concealer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
