You could also try the O'Three Point Below Base (PBB) undersuit.  It is made of the same stuff as the Fourth Elephant stuff but is 300g rather than 200g and so a bit warmer.  It also has long johns rather than trousers, so you don't get the gap when your top rides up.  

This weather is just too hot to wear my DUI C4 Thinsulate on the boat so I have been using the PBB for dives of an hour or less run time.  I paid £99 for it at the show (full set plus socks) and have been really pleased.  It is a lot cheaper than the Fourth Element one and works well.
