My comment:

While "tunic" would technically be correct here, its current use is mostly for female apparel,

A "robe," in modern English signifies something which opens and closes- closer to the Saudi style "Abaya" than what this is referring to.

My references:

Oxford Spanish Dictionary
El Diccionario de la Real Academia Española
