With hands on hips, elbows out (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

akimbo

This clue is a double definition.

'with hands on hips' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'elbows out' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for akimbo that I've seen before include "Hands on hips, elbows bent out" , "Way of standing" , "Stance with hands on hips" , "display of arms" , "With hands on hips and elbows extending outward" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
