Advertises Spielberg classic, wearing best suit (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trumpets

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'advertises' is the definition.
(trumpet can mean to advertise or publicise)

'spielberg classic wearing best suit' is the wordplay.
'spielberg classic' becomes 'et' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'wearing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'best suit' becomes 'trumps' (card-playing term).
'et' put inside 'trumps' is 'TRUMPETS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for trumpets that I've seen before include "Brass musical instruments" , "Brass wind instruments" , "Proclaims loudly like elephant sounds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
