Study cape worn by model (11)
I believe the answer is:
contemplate
'study' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'cape worn by model' is the wordplay.
'cape' becomes 'c' (abbreviation used on maps).
'worn by' becomes 'on'.
'model' becomes 'template' (template is a kind of model).
'c'+'on'+'template'='CONTEMPLATE'
(Other definitions for contemplate that I've seen before include "Think seriously" , "Ruminate on" , "Consider" , "Look at thoughtfully" , "Intend" .)
