tuniclike

Like a smock

Tuniclike describes something resembling a tunic in shape or style—typically a loose, simple garment that hangs straight from the shoulders to around the thighs or knees.

The term appears mostly in descriptions of clothing, costumes, or biological structures that share this draping, sheath-like quality: The dress had a tuniclike silhouette that skimmed the body without clinging.
