It's the Medieval Conference at Kalamazoo that gives me the most problems.  
Every other place I sell books, I'm wearing medieval or Renaissance SCA 
clothes, but there modern clothing is all I've ever seen.  Some of the 
participants (professors who already have tenure?) slum it in jeans and tee 
shirts but since there is a lot of professional networking going on, most dress 
better than that.  Trying to find clothes that look somewhat professional, that 
I can work in all day, with variations for unpredictable climatic conditions 
(one year it was up to 90 on the first week of May) and that I already own 
makes me crazy!  It's so much easier to dress in costume!

  Amen!  I always ask if I should wear "Period Attire".  It is so much 
  easier to "dress".

  Can we start a Fashion Trend, wearing our chosen Period clothing day to 
  day?
