You definitely have a point there!
(Though I still can't even imagine a sundress in August/September, when the weather generally would be warm enough.)
Semi-related note...we had a Graduate Consultant from our chapter at an SEC university come live with us for a year. When she first arrived, she suggested that perhaps chapter members weren't dressing up enough for class. We laughed and pointed out that 1) the other 15 sororities on campus dressed as casually as we did on campus for the most part and 2) if she could still tell us that we should be wearing skirts and dress shoes to class after she actually experienced January on our campus, perhaps we'd consider it.
By late January/early February, she was dressing the same way we were.
