I get asked all the time whether I am hot wearing historical fashion.
The short answer is no, not really. But in order to wear historical clothing in the heat and stay cool, planning and preparation need to be taken into account.
All throughout history people have survived, and even thrived, wearing these clothes in hot conditions, so it is completely possible for us 21st-century folks to as well. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that it is a myth that all people throughout history must have suffered during the summer months.
This video goes through a brief overview of my experience wearing historical clothing in hot weather, along with how you can stay cool, too, wearing historical fashion in hot conditions.
Do you have any additional tips on how you stay cool in the warmer months wearing historical clothing? Be sure to let us all know in the comments down below.
Thank you so much for watching!
Yours, etc.
