In dishonest trade, it's wrong to be thus dressed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

attired

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

'dressed' is the definition.
(I know that dressed can be written as attired)

'in dishonest trade it's wrong to be thus' is the wordplay.
'trade it' can be anagrammed to 'ATTIRED'.
Though, I am unsure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for attired that I've seen before include "got up" , "Turned out" , "Wearing clothes" , "surrounded by duds" , "Dressed or clothed" .)
