overclothe
Wear too much
To overclothe is to dress someone, especially a child, in too many layers or too much clothing for the conditions.
Parents who overclothe infants risk overheating them: She tends to overclothe the baby even in mild weather.
The word also applies reflexively: I overclothed for the hike and was sweating within minutes.
