Well, of course not. However, Burgundy was a wealthy state in the 1400's and the court, particularly under Philip the Good, son of John the Fearless, was extravagant. One would expect that the dukes would be depicted in the latest fashion. Philip the Good was depicted in a black Burgundian-style chaperon, while the earlier representation of his father shows a different type of hat. Styles change. Perhaps that is what was happening here. So, the question is, how early can the wide-brimmed, Burgundian-style of chaperon be shown to exist, not whether everyone wore them.

For the 'hat' database. Men's hats in the Book of the Queen, Paris, 1410-1414. Lots of variety.
