Skirt-expander (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bustle

(Other definitions for bustle that I've seen before include "Excited activity of subtle kind" , "Busy oneself noisily about the former feature of women's dress" , "Energetic activity" , "Padding once used to pad out back of skirt" , "Hurly-burly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
