The American pin-up girl has come to represent hope, beauty and sex appeal in a whole new way. These steps will help you find out how to become a pin-up girl.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Research pin-up girls. You can do this in your public library or with books like Bunny Yeager's "Pin-Up Girls of the 1950's."

  2. Step 2

    Contact modeling agencies to see if they handle pin-up girls or have any information on who to contact in the industry.

  3. Step 3

    Understand the body type of the pin-up girl. She is more voluptuous than the thin models of today, but should still be in good physical condition. Do you have this body type? Are you comfortable being portrayed in a provocative, sexy way?

  4. Step 4

    Contact calendar publishers to learn if they have any clients or projects that need models. Don't forget to look into glamour modeling.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you are not over the age of 18, start with a different type of modeling. Pin-up modeling is sexually provocative and there are many laws restricting the models and the photographers.
  • As with all areas of modeling, the competition is fierce and the industry is brutal. If this is what you really want, be prepared to fight for it.
