The problem with "Collar" is it says "Kragen, Vorder- und R�ckenkoller" On the other hand, would they mention the labels in a fashion magazine�

yoke

If "Koller" is a "Schulterpasse", it is called "yoke" in English. Just enter "yoke jacket" in Google to verify.

label

I've come across this before and had to check with the client. The answer was that a Koller is a label (i.e. those strips of fabric sewn into the garment indicating laundry instructions, etc) => Rückenkoller = label on the back, Vorderkoller = label on the front, or back label / front label.

collar

in German a Koller can be a Wams,Halskragen or Schulterpasse; it is possibly a collar type of attachment for the protection of the wearer.
