Coquettes; improvises (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vamps

This clue is a double definition.

'coquettes' is the first definition.
(vamping is a kind of coquetting)

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

(Other definitions for vamps that I've seen before include "Improvises crudely (mus.)" , "Improvised accompaniments" , "Extemporises musically" , "Seductive women" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
