Ultimate in smart town headgear (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turban

'headgear' is the definition.
(I know that turban is a type of headgear)

'ultimate in smart town' is the wordplay.
'ultimate in' indicates one should take the final letters.
'town' becomes 'urban' (urban means relating to a town or city).
The last letter of 'smart' is 't'.
't'+'urban'='TURBAN'

(Other definitions for turban that I've seen before include "Swathe of material as headdress" , "Sikh headgear" , "Wound headgear" , "But ran out for the headdress" , "Head-dress of male Muslim and Sikh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
