Stick with fashionable sculptor (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rodin

'sculptor' is the definition.
(Auguste Rodin was a French sculptor)

'stick with fashionable' is the wordplay.
'stick' becomes 'rod' (I've seen this before).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'fashionable' becomes 'in' (in can mean fashionable or trendy).
'rod'+'in'='RODIN'

(Other definitions for rodin that I've seen before include "French manual worker" , "French form master" , "Great French sculptor of 'The Thinker' etc" , "Kiss I'm famous for" , "French artist manually" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
