I think, from this picture, that the period is the 1400s? I went searching by fashion with zero knowledge whatsoever, but it looks high medieval, I think some of those hats are chaperons, and I'm almost positive those robes are houpelandes? So 15th century.

... And, looking up 15th century England, I get War of the Roses, and there's this picture right there, so apparently yes. War of the Roses it is. Painting by Henry Payne, 1908, entitled 'Choosing the Red and White Roses'. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Payne_(artist) )

I studied historical fashion from a theatrical background, and you're correct as far as I can tell. Also, houpelande is one of my favorite words to say. Just in general. Houpelande, houpelande, houpelande!

The word houpelande was definitely the highlight of my costume history class.
