I believe the answer is:

sarong

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'an exotic garment' is the definition.
'sarong' can be an answer for 'garment' (sarong is a kind of garment). I'm unsure of the 'an exotic' bit.

'no rags can make' is the wordplay.
'can make' indicates anagramming the letters.
'no'+'rags'='norags'
'norags' is an anagram of 'SARONG'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sarong that I've seen before include "Draped garment" , "Malay cloth" , "Brightly-coloured Asian skirt" , "Malay skirt-like garment" , "Groans about Malayan skirt-like garment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
