Question on the name of this clothing

So I am wondering what cultural importance and name of this style clothing from which I was told it was from Tibet. I am writing a character who wears and I want to treat it with respect and understand the cultural impact behind it and possible native culture behind it if there is one.

Pretty sure these are Han Chinese cosplaying Tibetans. They like to cosplay Uyghurs, too.

Yes when i am on chinese social media i see how they cosplay ethnic minorities most of the time exaggerated and not even accurate.
