ANSWER: Crossword Words

Beige (or beige family)

Originally in the 19th century and up to at least 1930, the color ecru meant exactly the same color as beige and the word is often used to refer to such fabrics as silk and linen in their unbleached state. Ecru comes from the French word écru, which means literally 'raw' or 'unbleached'.
