Is it too hot to wear Arab-style robes?

(I'm not saying that those are a Mafia hallmark, but I do wonder whether the robes would make sense in Brazil. As far as I'm aware they are the gold standard of heat-adapted clothing. They probably don't do much about humidity.)

I am from eastern India, not Brazil. It is definitely too humid to wear robes. Arabia is dry and hot, very different from humid and hot.

Really? Here's an image of what I take to be some Indian clothing: https://www.lerevecraze.com/product/mep14377/

And here's some Arab clothing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Dishdasha.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thawb#/media/File:Sheikh_Moham...

They don't look very different, to me.
