Garment cut in a different way (5)
I believe the answer is:
tunic
'garment' is the definition.
(tunic is a kind of garment)
'cut in a different way' is the wordplay.
'a different way' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cut'+'in'='cutin'
'cutin' with letters rearranged gives 'TUNIC'.
(Other definitions for tunic that I've seen before include "Partly uniform" , "Cut in (anag)" , "Close-fitting jacket that's part of a uniform" , "Schoolgirl's dress" , "Dress for soldier" .)
