Crossword Genius

Difficult question for model (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

poser

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'difficult question' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'model' is the second definition.
('poser' can be a synonym of 'model')

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for poser that I've seen before include "Puzzling question for the model" , "What's difficult" , "difficult puzzle" , "Exhibitionist" , "Show-off" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
