blow a fuse

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

'see red' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'shirt with a female wearing it' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'with' could be 'w' (short for with) and 'w' is located in the answer.
'a' is found in the answer.
'female' could be 'f' (common abbreviation) and 'f' is found within the answer.
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
