Crossword Genius

Tease in outrageous fashion (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rag

'tease' is the definition.
(I know that tease can be written as rag)

'in outrageous fashion' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'RAG' can be found hidden inside 'outrageous fashion'.

(Other definitions for rag that I've seen before include "Bit of material" , "charity event" , "Student carnival for charity" , "Practical joke" , "played by Scott Joplin?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
