I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Times for the Times have:

Cryptic. PRESSING (important) contains [clothes] anagram [for working]  of WE DO R (right). & lit. Thanks to Nigel F-H and Bletchers for pointing out that I had omitted the wordplay here. Once again I failed to consult my annotated print-out when compiling the blog. ‘Cryptic with no wordplay’ had been my original verdict on this one but I had gone back to the clue post-solve, spotted what was going on and marked up the clue accordingly. Then I forgot about it!
