Uncritical admirer of leotard I designed (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idolater

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

'uncritical admirer' is the definition.
'idolater' can be an answer for 'admirer' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'uncritical' bit.

'leotard i designed' is the wordplay.
'designed' is an anagram indicator (designed with the letters).
'leotard'+'i'='leotardi'
'leotardi' with letters rearranged gives 'IDOLATER'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for idolater that I've seen before include "False worshipper; tailored (anag.)" , "No orthodox believer" , "Tailored to worshipper of graven images" , "Worshipper of false gods" , "Besotted admirer" .)
