2. Victory Roll

Here is a fun pin-up or retro DIY that would be perfect for those who like to play with different hairstyles. This one is called the victory roll. You can recreate this look by hand and spray but it might be easier to use a special tool. For nice rolls, you will want to get a Curl Easy Pro Brush.

4. Polka Dot Pencil Skirt

A pin-up style wardrobe look would not be complete without a fitted pencil skirt. And of course you need one (or two) in polka dot print. We mentioned fitted but this doesn't mean that your DIY pencil skirt be constricting. You make yours using knitted fabric, you will have a nice retro style skirt with a comfortable give. Pair this with a corset style top and vintage shoes for a nice date night look.

6. Full Skirt

Another great addition to your pin-up wardrobe is the full skirt. Again, we suggest making these in polka dot pattern. Polka dot combos in strong contrast should be perfect; we love black and white, black and red, and red and white. Blue and white should be lovely, too, for a bit of a sailor vibe. You can make your skirt with pleats, as shown in the photo above or with a gathered waistline look for a fuller look.

7. Tulle Skirt

Apart from a polka dot full skirt, a nice pin-up wardrobe will need a tulle skirt, too. Tulle skirt, while made of delicate fabric, are actually quite easy to make. This will require only tulle outer fabric and plain silk or satin for the lining. You will also need elastic for the waistline. This particular tutorial comes with a ribbon waistline but you can skip that part.
