Soft lustrous fibre (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

silk

(Other definitions for silk that I've seen before include "Advocate" , "fine material" , "Fabric obtained from the cocoon of a worm" , "Fabric made from fine threads of certain worm" , "Item of fine legwear" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
