Removing lads from studio flat leads to suit (6)
I believe the answer is:
outfit
'suit' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'removing lads from studio flat' is the wordplay.
'removing' is an anagram indicator (moving the letters again).
'from' is a deletion indicator.
'studio'+'flat'='studioflat'
'studioflat' with 'lads' taken out is 'tuioft'.
'tuioft' with letters rearranged gives 'OUTFIT'.
'leads to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for outfit that I've seen before include "what to wear?" , "Set of clothes or group of people" , "Business" , "complete set of equipment" , "Kit, rig-out" .)
