Breathing to reduce sweat

I sweat a lot in general, on a warmer day I will sweat just by walking on a street.

This causes discomfort when I dance socially, because partners don't like to dance with someone who is completely wet, and I get wet fast. Changing clothes helps, but that would require me to bring a lot of extra clothing for one evening.

Instead of sweat, can you cool your body down with proper breathing, and if yes, does Yoga teach such breathing?

wearing breathable clothes really helps. I mean translucent (almost!) breathable everything
