Though uniformly styled, it varies in cut (5)

I believe the answer is:

tunic

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

'though uniformly styled it' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'varies in cut' is the wordplay.
'varies' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'vary' mean this).
'in'+'cut'='incut'
'incut' is an anagram of 'TUNIC'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tunic that I've seen before include "Clobber" , "Dress for soldier" , "Short uniform coat" , "Loose-fitting shirt or cloak" , "Schoolgirl's dress" .)
