I believe the answer is:

redress

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

'correct' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'about item of women's attire' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is present in the answer.
'attire' could be 'dress' (synonyms) and 'dress' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for redress that I've seen before include "set things right" , "Pay" , "Prepare again - satisfaction" , "set straight again" , "Reparation" .)
