Scandal is not in Vogue (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outrage

'scandal' is the definition.
(scandal can mean an occasion for public outrage)

'not in vogue' is the wordplay.
'not in' becomes 'out' ('out' is the opposite to 'in').
'vogue' becomes 'rage' (rage is a kind of vogue).
'out'+'rage'='OUTRAGE'

'is' is the link.

(Other definitions for outrage that I've seen before include "Act that shocks public opinion, generates anger" , "Scandal" , "A feeling of righteous anger" , "Appalled reaction" , "Intolerable or shocking act, to argue about" .)
