While the government and the media have officially announced that the recession is over, many are worried that we are still in it and could actually slip into a depression. If that is the case, then we better start dressing the part and the Three Over One Fall Collection can help us out.

With the brand's selection of poor boy hats, [tweed over coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nn07) and [starched collared shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-styles), the Three Over One Fall Collection will let us look like we're going to a Winston Churchill speech. Heck, I like the pieces so much, I'd wear them even if we weren't in a crippling economic state.
