A RUFF? A projecting starched frill is the one that first comes to mind. But there are other meanings to the word. One of the other meanings of the word ruff is an edible marine fish, one of the basic patterns of drumming, and finally a certain bird is called a ruff because of the "ruff" around its neck.
