Answer

FRILL

A frill is a decorative strip of gathered or pleated fabric attached to a garment or other item. The word can also mean something nonessential but added for extra appeal, as in the phrase 'no frills' meaning basic or without extras. It comes from the Flemish word 'frul' meaning a wrinkle or fold.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can be tricky to guess. When you have most letters figured out but something seems off, consider whether one letter might appear twice. Words with double L are fairly common in English.
