dressed

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

'turned' is the definition.
(dressing is a kind of turning)

'out daughter brought back most of pudding' is the wordplay.
'out daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation. I am not sure about the 'out' bit.).
'brought back' is a reversal indicator.
'most of' means to remove the last letter.
'pudding' becomes 'dessert' (I've seen this before).
'dessert' with its final letter taken away is 'desser'.
'desser' in reverse letter order is 'ressed'.
'd'+'ressed'='DRESSED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dressed that I've seen before include "Wearing clothes" , "Arranged" , "Brought into line" , "with mayonnaise, say" , "bandaged" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
