I believe the answer is:

bustle

(Other definitions for bustle that I've seen before include "Hustle and fuss" , "Padding once used to pad out back of skirt" , "Subtle kind of hubbub" , "Hurried activity - old padded support for woman's dress" , "Sublet (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
