See: http://tibet.prm.ox.ac.uk/ ‘The pointed monk’s hat in Tibet extends over the ears, usually in long lappets. According to sect, such hats were red when worn by members of the older schools, or yellow with the dGe-lugs-pa or reformed followers of Tsong-kha-pa. They were reserved for special ceremonies. … Hats varied greatly according to rank, educational standing, sect and occasion.’ [Zwalf 1981: 133 – 4]
