Shell suit (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

case

I believe this is a double definition.

'shell' is the first definition.
('case' can be a synonym of 'shell')

'suit' is the second definition.
('case' can be a synonym of 'suit')

(Other definitions for case that I've seen before include "Judge tries this" , "Instance - container" , "Item of luggage" , "Legal action; container" , "Keep careful watch on" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
