Ross

I believe the answer is:

guise

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">semblance</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that guise is a type of semblance)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">pretence</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that pretence can be written as guise)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for guise that I've seen before include "Semblance; likeness" , "Show" , "Mask" , "Demeanour" , "General appearance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
