It seems to me that you could adapt a bee keeper's suit for gardening.
If the netting is not fine enough for mosquitoes you could remedy that
easily. In general if you wear a bulky shirt with long sleaves and
tuch your pants into your socks that would take care of most.

I like to weed my gardens but I do not like mosquitoes and biting flies.
So
what I am thinking of building next summer is a teepee like structure. I
have
6 steel pipes that are about 5 meters long. What I am thinking of doing
is
fastening a wheel on each pipe and constructing some TeePee like
structure
so I can roll the TeePee around in my gardens. Of course I will get
mosquito
proof nylon netting and fasten them the length of the TeePee. So I wheel
the
TeePee around in my strawberry patches or onions or asparagus or spinach

or others. Get inside the Teepee and do my work without ever having to
worry about any insects biting me.

What I have not yet thought out is how to fasten the 6 pipes at the top.
I suppose
some sort of metal hoop. I suppose the Indians used some sort of rope.
Maybe
nylon rope?
