I believe the answer is:

tiara

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

'something for' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'the head girl one caught' is the wordplay.
'head' indicates taking the first letters.
'girl' becomes 'ara' ().
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'caught' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
The first letter of 'the' is 't'.
't'+'ara'='tara'
'tara' placed around 'i' is 'TIARA'.

Can you help me to learn more?
