Hot rod and pinup photographer Mitzi Valenzuela is known for having her finger on the pulse of both classic and rockabilly car culture. As part of that, Mitzi produces Pinup Contests for shows all over the world. Here she shares photos of the competitors and some super sweet rides.
The first Pinup Contest is taking place this year at the Mooneyes Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show. We have 10 lucky finalists who will be competing for the title of Miss Pinup Japan 2018. The contest presents pinups from all over the world, including finalists from the USA, Australia, Taiwan and Japan. Let's meet our first few contestants:
Rose D'Luxe - Australia's Pinup Lass with Sass. Hailing from Brisbane, Australia, she oozes pinup and rockabilly vibes all day, everyday - in her daily grind as a nurse, to the shadowed night as a fresh face in the burlesque scene. Her most cherished possession is her '62 S series Valiant (Chrysler), of course, cherry red in flavour. Rose D'Luxe enjoys cruising the Eastern Coastline in her Val, a prized memory and tribute to her late grandfather. Rose D'Luxe will forever be the dark haired beauty, pretty like the red petals of a rose, with a sassyy attitude like a thorn in your side.
"Hello! My name is Alice and I’m a makeup artist from Taiwan! I started dressing pinup Style three and half years ago, and I would like to learn more about and take part in more of the pinup culture! Instagram: @missalicemeow"
"I'm Nikki La Rouge! I'm a motorcycle-riding pinup from Los Angeles. I spend most of my free time checking out classic cars, vintage hunting or working on my new '51 Deluxe. I get to do what I love for a living and rescue animals that have been neglected."
