The White Rose, or Weiße Rose, was a non-violent resistance group in Nazi Germany led by five students and one professor at the University of Munich: Willi Graf, Kurt Huber, Christoph Probst, Alexander Schmorell, Hans Scholl, and Sophie Scholl. They conducted an anonymous leaflet and graffiti campaign calling for active opposition to the Nazi regime, denouncing its crimes and oppression. The group authored six leaflets, which were multiplied and spread to about 15,000 copies. The members were arrested by the Gestapo and faced show trials by the Nazi People's Court, resulting in imprisonment and execution for many. Hans and Sophie Scholl, as well as Christoph Probst, were executed by guillotine in 1943. The White Rose sought to establish contacts with other German resistance groups and is now well known both within Germany and worldwide. Their activities began in Munich and later spread to other cities, including Ulm and Hamburg. The group had support from various individuals, including Otl Aicher, Theodor Haecker, and Eugen Grimminger, who funded their operations. The White Rose's courageous resistance against the Nazi regime continues to be remembered and celebrated for its bravery and unwavering commitment to fighting injustice.

White tie, also known as full evening dress or a dress suit, represents the most formal evening Western dress code. For men, it features a black tail coat worn over a white dress shirt, piqué waistcoat, and a white bow tie. Women wear full-length ball or evening gowns with evening gloves and optional accessories like tiaras and jewelry. This dress code's origins can be traced back to the late 18th century, evolving from the elaborate clothing worn by western European male courtiers and aristocrats. By the 19th century, it became common practice for upper-class men to wear a black dress coat and trousers, along with a white or black waistcoat and a bow tie for evening events. Over time, the monotone color scheme of black and white became the standard for evening dress, with the emergence of the dinner jacket as a less formal alternative in the 1880s. Despite the shift towards more comfortable semi-formal black tie attire, white tie remains reserved for the most formal evening occasions, such as state dinners, formal balls, and traditional weddings. Since the late 20th century, white tie has become rare, with black tie often replacing it as the default evening wear for formal events.
