Unspecific style of town hat (7)
I believe the answer is:
whatnot
'unspecific style' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'of town hat' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates an anagram (the answer comes from or 'of' the letters).
'town'+'hat'='townhat'
'townhat' anagrammed gives 'WHATNOT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for whatnot that I've seen before include "This piece of furniture" , "Portable stand with shelves" , "part of the furniture" , "Thing whose name is temporarily forgotten" , "Thingumajig" .)
