Never naked, she usually wears a fig leaf (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eve

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

'she usually wears a fig leaf' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'never naked' is the wordplay.
'naked' says the answer is hidden in the clue (with the letters around the hidden word taken off).
'EVE' can be found hidden inside 'never'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eve that I've seen before include "First lady from the night before" , "Girl" , "Period immediately before" , "First mate" , "Lady of the previous night" .)
