Indian fashion designers not in sync with climate

Tweet

This is a hot country. We could be like arid Mexico but for the huge population that has kinda harnessed bore water and built large buildings. But coming to the point. We have fashion designers designing clothes with full sleeves. That is fine in the west. I can understand it to be good to prevent sun burns. But I ask me, what is wrong with the short sleeves, especially when people are using Chunnis or stoles. Yesterday my old househelp and the new househelp were discussing the heat out here. We are witnessing disgustingly hot weather .. in heat wave. There is absolutely no wind and the cement complexes ensure that the heat is radiated and remains for longer. They were saying I can make a fried egg on the street, I can feel the heat through my footwear. The other one said, would you believe even inside the house, when I was cooking I was drenched in my sweat even with the fan on? I must remember to mention what I am thankful for in Valerie's post. I feel sorry for the next generation here. I feel sorry for the voters who will have to stand in long queues. How hot is it at your end? We have touched 43C out here. (almost 110 F). Normally, this is towards the end of the May or first June, and only for three or four days. This time it is over a week, and I dread how things will be by end of May or in the first week of June.
