Answer

TUNIC

A tunic is a simple slip on garment made with or without sleeves, usually knee length or longer, belted at the waist. The word comes from Latin tunica. Tunics have been worn across many cultures throughout history, from ancient Rome and Greece to medieval Europe, and modern versions remain popular in fashion today.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains the letters U, N, I, and C, which are moderately common but can be tricky to place. When you get vowels confirmed early, focus on words where those vowels appear in different positions to narrow down placement quickly.
