Stylish groom? Yes, initially (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dressy

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'stylish' is the definition.
(in formal dress)

'groom? yes initially' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'groom?' could be 'dress' (dressing is a kind of grooming) and 'dress' is present in the answer.
'yes' could be 'y' and 'y' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dressy that I've seen before include "Sartorially elegant" , "Wearing stylish clothes, elegant (6)" , "swish" , "Stylishly attired" , "Smartly clad, wearing stylish clothes" .)
