Sukob is a short sleeve black blouse paired with gonob linangkit. Gonob is a knee-length black sarong with linangkit decorative embroidery of flower design with red as the main colour. However, golden, white, orange and blue colours are also added in. The gonob’s tier is a white cloth called Haboi.

Kuluwu is a shawl with both ends of the cloth sewn jointly and worn across the right shoulder. Kuluwu can also be made as a head cover or placed on the hand as decoration.

This traditional attire has a number of accessories to equip it like waist accessory called Lilimbo made of rattan. Botungkat is belt made of silver 

coins. 

The Simpai accessory is bracelet made of silver and normally worn at the upper arm. The anklet, called Lansung and Tombuku, are golden coins worn in odd numbers that is three or five. 

There are four linangkit embroidery motifs, among them is Watermelon Seeds known as Lininsou Sadur. The embroidery is joined together to form a design like the wajit traditional cake, known as linodi.

The second motif is Bamboo Shoot, usually found at the left and right side part of linangkit. The Dusun Lotud use this motif as until now bamboo shoot is a traditional dish in ceremonies.

Thirdly, the Abur-abur Leaf motif that is a plant found in paddy fields and its shape is akin to a frame surrounding the Suboh motif. 

The last motif is in the shape of Permatang (boundary of each section of the paddy field) and Batu (rock), based on plants and the Sibot Permatang found in the paddy fields. 

This Dusun Lotud traditional attire is black and made of velvet and cotton cloths. The yesteryear’s society used thread as the base for linangkit embroidery, produced from natural plants like husk ingredients or pineapple leaves’ fibre that are plaited to become thread and coloured with turmeric to produce yellow colour and tursih ingredient to produce black colour. Red colour is produced using nature’s elements like mangrove wood skin or sandalwood.

Nowadays, there is a change in the linangkit motif as there are added decorations dominated by beads and sequins. Linangkit is embroidered vertically and horizontally at the mid bottom of gonob and kuluwu. A number of the linangkit motif variations have been produced by the Dusun Lotud community that portray aesthetic values and have the pull factor.

Lilimbo is made of rattan shaped in coils like a spring and coloured in red, black and brown. Every colour has its own motif and meaning. For example, for virgins they are compulsory to wear red lilimbo. For the married they have to wear a combination of red and black, while the elderlies the natural rattan colour of yellow or brown.

The Momolian and Tantagas practitioners are responsible to remind the Dusun Lotud tribe about customary affairs, including the custom of wearing that must be adhered to avoid the wearer being imposed a fine called sogit. Among the focus is the wearing of lilimbo, blouse and gonob.

Mistake surfaces if a married woman who has children wears red lilimbo. For this mistake the woman’s children are fined, known as sogit, because of their actions in hiding the woman’s status. If sogit is not imposed the community are worried that this would cause a curse and debacle might befallen on the children.

Married women are also forbidden to wear accessories like simpai and lansung. The wearing is only for virgins that implies of being ‘stylish’.

Normally long sleeve sukub is worn by married women and rarely by the unmarried. The skirt or gonob needs to be below the knees to look more polite and not overboard.
