Severely criticise neckwear and underwear (7)
I believe the answer is:
panties
'underwear' is the definition.
(I know that panties is a type of underpants)
'severely criticise neckwear' is the wordplay.
'severely criticise' becomes 'pan' (pan can mean to criticise heavily).
'neckwear' becomes 'ties' (I've seen this in another clue).
'pan'+'ties'='PANTIES'
'and' acts as a link.
(Another definition for panties that I've seen is " Clothes".)
