Clarify region and style

[edit]

The chuba, or chupa, is a Tibetan type of dress, which is stated in the lede, but then it discusses it as the traditional dress of Sherpas in Nepal. It's confusing to state it as such. I think that the style is originally Tibetan, but that it has been adopted by people across the Himalayan region. The term also seems to apply to wide array of clothing, not just warm coats but also sleeveless dresses. I'll do some research and come back to this, but if anyone is more familiar with the topic than me, please weigh in. —Zujine|talk 15:47, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
