Stylish rector with appeal to unknowns (5)
I believe the answer is:
ritzy
'stylish' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'rector with appeal to unknowns' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'rector' could be 'r' and 'r' is found in the answer.
'appeal' could be 'it' ('it' can mean something attractive or appealing) and 'it' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ritzy that I've seen before include "Ostentatiously rich" , "Luxuriously opulent (slang)" , "Luxuriously elegant" , "Ostentatiously stylish" , "Luxurious" .)
