  1. After the Germans adopted the Stahlhelm (on the left in the picture) during the First World War, the British must have recognized how much more protection to the wearer it offered than the Brodie Helmet.

    I wonder why they did not copy the German design. Was the cost of production a factor?

  3. CLASSy -- Tear Drop -- SBS 260719

    I'm posting this "Tear Drop" stage less because of the song, which is neither terrible nor particularly memorable, but on account of its providing me with an opportunity to write a few words about hats in Kpop performances.

    This stage show one idol wearing a cap and another in a pillbox hat. I strongly prefer the latter to the former. For me, the pillbox communicates elegance and style, whereas the cap evokes the everyday world of running errands on a bad hair day.

    Although I have never and will never wear a cap like this, I can understand the cap's practical appeal. Yet this down to earth practicality damns this headwear style for me when it comes to styling for the Kpop stage.

    I want a stage by virtue of song, dance, and styling to enchant me by dispelling the humdrum quotidian if only for a few minutes. The cap, with its suggestion of the casual and the careless does the very opposite. The pillbox casts a spell; the cap breaks it.

  6. Continuation!
    Today is the date I created Emily's first design and uploaded it online (2013).
    That became her date of birth canonically.

    Happy Birthday Emily!

  10. I do want to read a good biography of Jinnah, but please forgive me right now for focusing on appearance, and noting how handsome he is and how stylish that karakul hat is!

  12. 🧵 1/2

    Le Sserafim -- Blue Flame -- M Countdown -- 220505

    In this stage two topics of some recent Kpop posts of mine converge -- berets and Le Sserafim.

    I'd forgotten how addictive the bouncy bass of this song is, and I had also forgotten that this particular stage is a beret lover's dream. The choreography is a delight, with some moves that verge on the graceless but succeed in being charmingly quirky.

    Of course, there is much more to say; let's leave aside the painful subject of Garam and her departure from the group, and turn instead to...

  14. I've never liked baseball caps, but that's just my personal taste.

    I hope, however, that everybody can recognize the depravity of this lout featuring his merch while launching a war with all its attendant death and suffering.
