I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fancy that' is the definition.
'ornate' can be an answer for 'fancy' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the rest of the definition.

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ornate that I've seen before include "Detailed" , "Excessively decorated" , "Richly adorned and elaborate" , "Flash" , "Decorated with tan ore" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
