Good morning!
I am thoroughly stumped by the above term. I gather that this is some kind of inner flap at the back of the jacket but is there a more professional term for it?
I have no pictures or further context, sadly.
Kind regards,
Sara

Or perhaps just "concealed hood", which one would automatically assume to be at the back!

Inner back yoke
I think bas-volet refers to the yoke of a garment. Here's an example of a tunic with one: http://www.ksxylv.com/-p-28429.html?zenid=eed38b6f3bf8e24f2f...
Note from asker:
| Thank you for taking the time to help me with this. I opted for Wendy's version (or a version thereof) in the end as I always though that 'empiècement' was the term for a yoke. Sara |

: I think you're right! Here you can see a back yoke (outer not inner): http://www.gentlemansgazette.com/trench-coat-guide/
