Material to give daughter a disguise (6)
I believe the answer is:
damask
'material' is the definition.
(damask is a kind of material)
'give daughter a disguise' is the wordplay.
'give' says to put letters next to each other.
'daughter' becomes 'd'.
'disguise' becomes 'mask' (masking is a kind of disguising).
'd' next to 'a' is 'da'.
'da'+'mask'='DAMASK'
'to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for damask that I've seen before include "Lustrous cloth" , "Fabric used for table linen" , "Heavy patterned fabric" , "heavy embossed table linen" , "Red" .)
