Unfashionable wear for women in the suburbs (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outskirts

'the suburbs' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'unfashionable wear for women' is the wordplay.
'unfashionable' becomes 'out' (synonyms).
'wear for women' becomes 'skirts' (I've seen this before).
'out'+'skirts'='OUTSKIRTS'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for outskirts that I've seen before include "borders" , "area away from town centre" , "Fringes of a city" , "Edges (of town)" , "Periphery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
