*laughs* Nope. No air-con. All outdoors. Daily temps at the moment don't really get higher than 22C (The last event was FREEZING!!! It didn't get above 12C)
Okay, I know that, traditionally, these dresses were made out of fur and wool, but we Queensland re-enactors aren't quite that stupid (for all that we like to beat each other up and all that). My bottom layer, the chemise, is made of calico. Next layer, the kirtle, is linen. We like linen, linen breathes. The houpeladde has two layers to it, the lining is calico and the pretty fabric is actually cotton.
Plus, I'm going as a lady. We didn't do much except sit around and look pretty ^__^
