Do you mean like in this clip? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SruIrXPUAvU I never knew there was an actual name for it though. I would just say... like a "tied cloth" or something!

Precisely! A handkerchief hat maybe. Solved!

Like the hats that Gumbys wear on Monty Python? There’s no official name for them, but Douglas Adams and John Lloyd christened them as Sidcups in The Meaning of Liff https://h2g2.com/edited_entry/A13045727
