More can be written, but maybe you'd like to see a question from some days ago, "How did people keep cool while wearing so many layers between 1700’s-1900’s?". I pointed to the FAQ section on "Clothing and climate" and pointed to several replies that were applicable to that question.
This is not to discourage discussion. More questions, data and debate are welcome.
Specifically: is this FAQ section, or these answers, close enough to your question to answer you, or do you have aspects or questions that aren't addressed?
