That's Hollywood. Nobody knows if Jack The Ripper wore a cloak or anything else. Cloaks were popular men's wear in the Victorian Age so I can imagine that is where the cloak and top hat image came from.

Unless a bloody cloak was left at one of the crime scenes there would be know way to tell what the Ripper wore. In all probability, the Ripper would have worn clothes that would have let him blend in. The alternative would have been detection.
