Linen color (4)
I believe the answer is:
ecru
'linen color' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for ecru that I've seen before include "one of the colours" , "Find a cure, strangely, in the colour" , "Greyish white" , "light beige" , "Unbleached-linen colour" .)
