To me that just looks like a cloak where one arm is out of the sleeve (perhaps for better mobility at drinking or drawing your knife…) |

It's a cloak or a gown worn draped over for ease of movement, my money would be on a cloak due to the way it's cut and the lack of any visible signs of a sleeve. Medieval and Renaissance cloaks came in a wide variety of shapes and surviving garmets tend to look fairly diffrent from a lot of the "cloaks" worn on screen in TV or movies. Or were you refering to the red one worn by the quarrelsome fellow with drawn weapon rather than the white with green decorations? |
