What's the flap of fabric that covers buttons called?

I need to describe a jacket that has hidden buttons and want to say what the piece of fabric is. I thought it would be "placket," but apparently that means something different. The closest I've found is "fly," which would be right, only this is a woman's jacket, not a man's pants! Thanks!

    It is in fact called a "concealed placket."
