Miss Pin Up USA,

About the event

A pin-up girl, also known as a pin-up model, is a model whose mass-produced pictures see wide appeal as popular culture. Pin-ups are intended for informal display, i.e. meant to be "pinned-up" on a wall. Pin-up girls may be glamour models, fashion models, or actresses.

“As Houston undergoes an ethnic and cultural transformation, its reputation grows as a place where people can dream big and succeed.” The Smithsonian
“You shouldn’t dismiss Houston so easily; the Bayou City is an economic juggernaut.” Business Insider
“But Houston has something many other major cities don’t: jobs. With the local economy humming through the recession, Houston enjoyed 2.6% job growth last year and nearly 50,000 Americans flocked there in response — particularly young professionals.” – Forbes
The accolades for Houston’s greatness go on and on. Houston locals have known what our city has to offer long before the national attention turned our way.
What is it that makes Houston so great? It’s people. Our ingenuity, drive and resilience is what built this city into what it is today.
