Untidy heap of discarded clothing (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nudity

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

'of discarded clothing' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'untidy heap' is the wordplay.
'untidy' anagrams to 'NUDITY'.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nudity that I've seen before include "The altogether" , "of discarded clothing" , "Moving at high speed" , "Condition of having no clothes on" , "Untidy (anag) -- result of being in one's birthday suit" .)
