Sporting a hat, before getting scarf (7,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

feather boa

'scarf' is the definition.
(feather boa is a kind of scarf)

'sporting a hat before' is the wordplay.
'sporting' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'hat'+'before'='ahatbefore'
'ahatbefore' is an anagram of 'FEATHER BOA'.

'getting' acts as a link.

(Another definition for feather boa that I've seen is " Fancy scarf".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
