w00t! Good find!

As an aside, have you found any supporting documentation for the houppelande design in the lower right (second from the last. Doublet, hose, open houppelande and hat).

I know this specific source is Victorian and possible BS, but they're usually have some authentic source somewhere...

I don't know about that cote design, OR the wearing of those hats in particular in the 15th century. The doublet and hose are for the most part correct though, but that looks like a Victorian overcoat that someone made longer to me. That's definitely a 16th century hat though.

Also: Stiletto in front of the junk? REALLY?!

I agree on the hat, but I could swap it for one of the short brim felt hats with feathers or even a flat cap. The coat thing is (supposedly) a houppelande that is open in the front, perhaps usually belted... like in this picture:

Sadly I have no actual documentation to figure out if that is a legit style or BS.
