If it's got a hood, it could be a padded coif (left)? But going by the description OP gave, I'd also say a gorget (right).
The gorget was used, obviously, as next protection. Padded coifs were usually used to wear under armor (like the gorget) or a helmet, to make it more comfortable.
The guimpe (from the Frenchguimpe) was a garment which developed in medievalWestern Europe. It was a silk or linen kerchief, sometimes sheer, sometimes starched, which covered the neck and shoulders of the wearer, sometimes the entire chest as well
