Lowest collection in the linen press (6)

I believe the answer is:

towels

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

'in the linen press' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'lowest collection' is the wordplay.
'collection' indicates anagramming the letters (the same collection of letters).
'lowest' with letters rearranged gives 'TOWELS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for towels that I've seen before include "Driers" , "Drying cloths for owlets" , "Absorbent cloths for owlets" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
