Wholesomely respectable (5-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

clean-cut

(Other definitions for clean-cut that I've seen before include "Tidy and respectable" , "Sharply-outlined" , "Handsome, with features sharply outlined" , "With a neat, respectable appearance" , "Appearing neat and respectable (of a man)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
