It is perfectly traditional to use ones brains when choosing one's attire for any event. Traditional is not all about tweeds, brogues and balmorals it is perfectly within reason to adjust one's attire to suit weather conditions and still put on a reasonable show with one's attire.
In hot climes I would not hesitate to substitute my balmoral for a panama, my wool shirt for linen, my wool tweed argyll for a linen jacket, I would not hesitate to wear a lighter weight kilt, I would not hesitate to wear cooler kilt hose and if possible I would not hesitate to find light weight shoes and I would still look as smart as I could in the circumstances.
