Rush sculpture by the Parisian (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bustle

'rush' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'sculpture by the parisian' is the wordplay.
'sculpture' becomes 'bust' (bust is a kind of sculpture).
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the parisian' becomes 'le' (definite article in French).
'bust'+'le'='BUSTLE'

(Other definitions for bustle that I've seen before include "Fuss about part of woman's dress of old" , "used in old fashion accessory" , "Busy activity; old skirt padding" , "Padding once used to pad out back of skirt" , "Sublet (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
