Pin-up photographs got their name because the women in the pictures were so beautiful that men would “pin-up” their pictures on their walls. The idea of pin-up girls has been widespread for centuries, although it did not receive its name until the early 1900’s. Pin up girls were beautiful woman who were posed in an sexy or provocative manor. The girls faces were soft and often depicted over exaggerating glances or gestures. It was not until the 1940’s that pin up girls were depicted wearing the, now, vintage lingerie.

Beginning in the 1940’s, pin-up girls were photographed wearing the sexiest lingerie of the time. Common styles of lingerie found in pin-ups were corsets, stockings, garter belts and high heels. These brought new excitement to the idea of pin-ups. More then ever men collected them, hung them on walls, and even hid them in books. In World War II pin-ups became extremely popular as the soldiers fighting for our country would display them in their bunk rooms. Pilots began to paint pin-up girls upon their fighter, bomber and cargo plains, this was called nose art. Because it reached its peak of popularity at such a historical time in our country it is uncommon for someone not to have seen a war era pin up girl in their life time. This is why this style of vintage lingerie is the most popular.
