Color whose name comes from the French for "unbleached" (4)

I believe the answer is:

ecru

(Other definitions for ecru that I've seen before include "Greyish white" , "Shade of unbleached linen" , "Stange cure for a colour" , "Very light brown colour" , "Bleached linen colour" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
