Im stuck on the last two clues, both of which are thematically treated.

1d. Gathering closes entrance to sweat-shop in annoyance

32d Turbans of non-U relative covered in flowers

Ive not given the letters as I think it will be confusing as they're both 'treated'.

Any help gratefully received! Thanks Lisa

What is the thematic treatment and how many letters are in each word?

1d ENDS UP WITH 5 LETTERS AND 32D ENDS UP WITH 4. but that is after they have a word removed which is an item of clothing..
