Oxford cincher (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lace

(Other definitions for lace that I've seen before include "Delicate open-web fabric" , "Delicate fabric woven in an open web" , "A fabric; add alcohol to" , "Spike - ornamental fabric" , "Flimsy fabric or shoe fasterner" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
