Crossword Genius

Clothing in minaret, tailored (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

raiment

'clothing' is the definition.
(raiment is a kind of clothing)

'minaret tailored' is the wordplay.
'tailored' is an anagram indicator (the letters are customised ).
'minaret' with letters rearranged gives 'RAIMENT'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for raiment that I've seen before include "investment" , "Am inert (anag) - clothing" , "Clothing (literary)" , "Clothing (poetically)" , "Clothing (archaic)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
