Working at mode - quantity is bespoke (4-2-7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

made-to-measure

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

'working at mode quantity' is the wordplay.
'working' indicates an anagram.
'quantity' becomes 'measure' (synonyms).
'at'+'mode'='atmode'
'atmode' is an anagram of 'madeto'.
'madeto'+'measure'='MADE-TO-MEASURE'

(Other definitions for made-to-measure that I've seen before include "Specially tailored" , "Not off the peg" , "Custom-built; bespoke" , "Not off-the-peg" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
