Wearing a lungi

Q: (1) Is there a Sunnah or a preferred manner of tying the lungi? (2) Is it from among the Sunnats of Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) to just wear a lungi and sleep i.e bare chested? (3) The lungis in some eastern countries, like Malaysia, Indonesia etc., are not a rectangular sheet, but instead, the long sides are sewn together to form a tube shape. Whereas the lungis in Yemen etc. are a single linear sheet. Please advise as to which type is better to wear.
