'what to wear to do' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'winter sport right?' is the wordplay.
'winter sport' becomes 'ski'.
'right?' becomes 'rt' (abbreviation as in Rt Hon- the Right Honourable).
'ski'+'rt'='SKIRT'

Can you help me to learn more?
