Rose and Lily, for example, in old clothes? (8)
I believe the answer is:
bloomers
'clothes?' is the definition.
(bloomers is a kind of clothes)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bloomers that I've seen before include "made by clothing manufacturers" , "displayed in bed" , "clothes" , "Undergarment" , "Slips" .)
