Special fabric apparently so tight-fitting (5-2)
I believe the answer is:
spray-on
'apparently so tight-fitting' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'special fabric' is the wordplay.
'special' becomes 'sp' (abbreviation).
'fabric' becomes 'rayon' (rayon is a kind of fabric).
'sp'+'rayon'='SPRAY-ON'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
