The Surcot Isabella, also known as Devil's Window or Gates of Hell because of the extremely wide armholes, is designed to be worn over an undergarment. It emphasizes the length and shows it off to advantage.
An ornament at any market but also wearable for a mage or scholar at LARP. This model is made of a rough-textured, comfortable-to-wear construction wool fabric that enhances the authentic look. The name surcot probably comes from the fact that it was normally worn over a cotte, a slip dress worn by women and men alike in the form of a wide undertunic.
