Woman never stripped (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eve

'woman' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'never stripped' is the wordplay.
'stripped' says to take the centre.
The centre of 'never' is 'EVE'.

(Other definitions for eve that I've seen before include "Lady of the previous night" , "Adam's partner" , "when it gets dark" , "'All About - - ' (Bette Davis film)" , "The night before a festival" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
