Linen fabric got from one easily fooled by wise man? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seersucker

'linen fabric' is the definition.
(type of fabric)

'one easily fooled by wise man?' is the wordplay.
'one easily fooled' becomes 'sucker' (sucker can mean a gullible person).
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'wise man?' becomes 'seer' (I've seen this in other clues).
'sucker' after 'seer' is 'SEERSUCKER'.

'got from' is the link.

(Other definitions for seersucker that I've seen before include "Material" , "Cotton" , "Puckered fabric" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
