Tailored Croatian item of clothing (8)
I believe the answer is:
raincoat
'item of clothing' is the definition.
'tailored croatian' is the wordplay.
'tailored' indicates an anagram (the letters are customised ).
'croatian' anagrammed gives 'RAINCOAT'.
(Other definitions for raincoat that I've seen before include "Wet weather wear" , "protection against the elements" , "Catriona (anag.)" , "clothing" , "Protective garment for Croatian" .)
