Sauce getting on clothes (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dressing

I believe this is a double definition.

'sauce' is the first definition.
(I know that dressing is a type of sauce)

'getting on clothes' is the second definition.
(dressing means putting clothes on)

(Other definitions for dressing that I've seen before include "Putting clothes on" , "clothing" , "Sauce for salad etc" , "the early-morning routine" , "French or vinaigrette, say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
