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

'beauty' is the definition.
(I know that beauty can be written as peach)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for peach that I've seen before include "Pinkish-orange colour" , "Turn informer" , "Exceptionally good thing; pinkish-orange" , "Juicy fruit with yellow-pink skin and rough stone" , "To accuse" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
