Civvies (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mufti

'civvies' is the definition.
(both can mean non-uniform)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for mufti that I've seen before include "Plain clothes worn by soldier" , "Civvy dress" , "Civilian dress, in army terms" , "Muslim religious jurist" , "Plain clothes - Muslim legal expert" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Boston Globe, The Guardian, the New York Times, The Telegraph and the USA Today.
