Stands when wearing slippers (6)

I-S-L- ?

Easels?
when = AS, in EELS, slippers?

I think you are right. The setter spells ecuadorian with an e (I should have seen since it was an anagram).

Never heard eels as slippers though. Is it the fish or a cockney rendition of shoes?

I don't know, Tango. It was a long shot but seemed to fit.

I agree it fits. Thank you!

tango
