I have a few questions about the attire of Guru Gobind Singh ji.

Did he wear a dhumalla or a traditional royal mughal turban of the time?

 

If he wore a dhumalla, did he wear it like the Nihangs or just wore a simple one (a round turban resembling some of the paintings of OTHER gurus)?

 

If he wore a Nihang one, did he stack chakars on it?

Did he place miniature shastars in it?

Did he wear a farla?

Did he wrap tora around it?

 

I think his turban would look more like it does in those old paintings, like those royal mughal turbans. but there are many people who insist his turban would be different; some insist that his turban would be a like traditional Nihang dhumalla.

 

So I need answers, and if sources are provided, then great!
