Theres nothing in a sailing vessel being lavishly decorated (7)
I believe the answer is:
baroque
'theres nothing' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'in a sailing vessel being lavishly decorated' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'a sailing vessel' becomes 'barque' (barque is a kind of sailing vessel).
'being lavishly decorated' becomes 'o' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'barque' enclosing 'o' is 'BAROQUE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for baroque that I've seen before include "Ornamental style" , "Architectural period" , "Extravagantly ornamented" , "Ornate decorative style" , "With elaborate ornamentation" .)
