Answer:
The long skirts worn by women in Sikkim are called Baku.
Explanation:
- Clothing in Sikkim reflects the cultural and social practices of the state's major ethnic groups, including Lepchas, Nepalis, and Bhutias.
- These three groups dress in a variety of outfits that are further divided into subcategories.
- Bhutia women wear Baku or Kho, which are long skirts worn by women in Sikkim.
- The dress is usually very long, resembling a cloak, with a belt around the waist, and some women wear it with a silky loose full-sleeved blouse called "Honju" inside a "Kho" and an outside jacket called "Kushen," while others wear "Pangen," a multi-colored apron-like cloth tied on the frontal part of the waist and considered a symbol of married women.
