The word "pin up" refers to the movement that was born in the 1920s in the United States when pioneering women began posing to appear in illustrations, postcards or photographs in a sensual and underwear manner combating the sexual repression that existed at the time. These images were distributed mainly among American soldiers to raise their morale, reached their roof in the 1960s, at which time more sexual freedom began to be glimpsed being nudity and the most normal sex without the taboos of decades past. However, the pin up resurfaced again strongly but more so as a style or fashion in the 21st century by women who reproduce the hairstyles, dresses and makeup of the pin up postcards or old illustrations.
