'like some fine tulle' is the definition.
'net' can be an answer for 'tulle' (I've seen this in another clue). I am unsure of the 'like some fine' bit.

'you can see through it' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'it' could be 't' (abbreviation. e.g. in 'tis) and 't' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ne' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for net that I've seen before include "Mesh; entrap" , "Score a goal" , "difficulty" , "Mesh; after tax" , "Amount remaining after deductions" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
