How do you wear Psychobilly? I need tips to get started! >.<

I really love the look of Psychobilly but I'm used to wearing traditional pin-up style. What's the best way to get started? Also can anyone tell me what brands and or items they like to wear?

Check out Sourpuss.com. I have gotten a couple of Pin up dresses with a goth or spooky twist to them. They also carry Iorn fist shoes... a must have for the Ghoul on the go. :-)

Check out my pics..lol. Just kidding!  : P  It should'nt be seen as a uniform just whatever you think fits..for example..personally I'll wear a black dress shirt with some black leggings (with skulls on it) and that's "psycho" enough for me some days. No need to spend a lot of money there. But if I do indulge in some brand spanking new clothing I do like "Lucky 13", "Sailor Jerry", "Living Dead Souls" and of course "Sour Puss".

Of course, after Halloween is a great time to get deals on psychobilly-ish accesories. : P  Can't wait!

"It shouldn't be seen as a uniform just whatever you think fits" Anita said it the perfect way!!

 

You should inspired yourself by what YOU think its psychobilly, no need to copy or look exactly the way the others of that style look. Or else, its not original at all.

 

Be creative!!! :)

This thread will help, http://www.pinuplifestyle.com/forum/topics/psychobilly-essentials. After that just do some googling for music and bands. If you spend enough time doing the research, you'll figure out how to make the look your own.

I took a bit of offense to this thread at first.. however after re reading what you have said, I understand that you were just asking how to incorporate it into your already lovely pin up style..just add cute flairs to your style like cute bats!

I agree with what Miss Fixx says... Don't just try to conform to a "psychobilly" uniform or stereotype. just be yourself, and don't try to pose as something your not. <3
