Answer:

The grandeur of Sikkim as a favourite offbeat holiday getaway does not lie only in its outstandingly picturesque sceneries or its lip-smacking cuisine but also in its extremely warm-hearted populace which is so diverse yet so intricately connected. The clothing of Sikkim shows this diversity and exemplifies social and cultural lives of the three main resident communities - the Lepchas, Bhutias and the Nepalis. People from other states like Biharis, Bengalis, Marwaris, Punjabis and South-Indians have also settled here and they follow their own traditional items of clothing.

Let's discern types of traditional dresses of Sikkim worn by the different communities

Sikkim Traditional Dresses

1. Bhutia Tribe - Bakhu/Kho

The main costume donned by Bhutias is the Bakhu (according to the Nepalese dialect) or Kho (according to the Bhutia dialect). Worn by men and women alike, Bakhu is very similar to the Tibetan Chuba, except that it is sleeveless. It is a loose cloak-like garb which is tied at the neck and tightened around the waist by a belt made of silk or cotton. The Bakhu has found modifications over the years. Women nowadays pair it with a pair of jeans to add a western twist to the look. Shawls popularly known as Majetro and classy blouse designs like Chaubandi Cholo and Tharo Cholo are also in fashion.

The traditional Thokro-Dum of Lepcha community (Source)

The Thokro-Dum is the primary outfit for the Lepcha community members. Usually, the Lepcha bread makers sport this. It consists of a white pyjama stretching up to the calves, almost resembling a karate player's outfit. Yenthatse, a Lepcha shirt and Shambo, an embroidered cap are paired with it. A multicoloured, hand-woven cloth called the Dumpra is pinned at one shoulder and held in place by a waistband. The short length of the pyjama indicates that the men have originated from or lived long in marshy land. The texture of the material is rough and long-lasting, suitable for a hard day of toiling in the field. Many times, traditional cone-shaped bamboo and rattan hats are also worn. The Thyaktuk and its types are intricately woven hats true to their roots buried deep in history and authenticity. These hats are normally made from fine canes from bamboos, straws and leaves apart from Anok Thakytuk which is made from fine velvet cloth. It was used as a traditional headgear of royal soldiers during the regime of the Chogyal dynasty. Even today, this headgear is a must during marriage ceremonies or religious festivals.
