Miss Västerås Summer Meet 2024 – voting

42 year old lady who feels like 30….
Lives just outside Rättvik with my partner, my 2 children, our dogs and cats.
Works in healthcare and at the rescue service.
Also became Sweden’s youngest grandmother in 1997, and as far as I know, no one has beaten it yet.
I love old furnishings and clothes and go to flea markets as often as I can.
My house breathes 50s my clothes 60s but I drive a chrysler windsor from -40.
Motivation: Would be great fun to show that even a grandmother with hanging tits can become Miss Västerås Summer Meet!

Here I am, an authentic and sparkling pin up multiplayer, from your neighbouring country Finland. I just love classic 40s style, but also have a rebellious side. In pin up I love to be what I’m made for, go forward and show my own style!
Motivations: I would like to show that there is an amazing 46-year-old pin up girl from Finland who can make Västerås rock! (And of course because my aunt used to live there 30 years ago) 😃.

I am pinup enthusiast from Northern Finland who’s heart beats for vintage style and performing. My day job is at the office, but during the evenings and weekends my life is filled with vintage, pinup and burlesque related activities. I have been competing in several pinup contests and started one of the oldest annual pinup competition in Finland, Midnight Sun Pinup here In Lapland. As we didnt have that much of fun summer events arranged by others at arctic circle I decided to create one my self. Now it will be the fourth year for Midnight Sun Vintage weekend, which gathers the pinup, vintage and burlesque lovers to Rovaniemi in June.

My favourite decades are 1930-1940s but I am rather flexible when aiming to the look I desire. I combine true vintage, repros and my own handcrafting skills when building a look. I love second hand items and when coming to Sweden I will do definitely two things: visit my sister and her family and go thrift shopping. I feel most alive during the summer as the sun is shining and it is so easy to just pick any of my lovely outfits and go out enjoying life!

Motivering: I have been in couple of Swedish pinup contests before and it would be lovely to make more new friends who love pinup too. I also want to  practice my Moominsensk and off course to  get good reason to visit Västerås again. I am a good entertainer and enjoy being on stage, so it would be fun to the audience too.

A 32-year-old car girl from Järlåsa who loves car meetings, cruising, ice racing and drag racing.
Participated as 1 of 8 finalists in miss winter 2024.
Motivations: I want to inspire others to dare to be themselves and go their own way. To stand out is a strength and above all to have fun.

I am a 30 year old mother of 2 children, riding teacher and interested in creating an international pinup career.
In 2017 I participated in the Miss route 5 competition and became the first heritage princess and in 2023 in the international Midnightsun pinup competition and reached the final.
Motivations: I am an energetic pocket rocket who knows how to throw myself and a chameleon who can adapt to many different styles.

I am a happy and social woman, a little over 50 years old, who lives with my partner outside Enköping. I like the 50s style with the clothes and cars, I drive a Buick with my partner and we visit many car meetings during the season.
I work in healthcare and have many interests such as exercise, gardening, clothes/vintage and antiques. Collecting gnomes & old Easter eggs, animal interest, and of course driving my 1956 Buick during the season.
Motivations: With my age I want to challenge the younger generation, winning Miss Summer Meet 2024 is an honour and to represent the female pinup style and to represent such a nice event as Summer Meet actually is.

I am a lively and cheerful girl from Östergötland who has recently become a mum for the first time! I am also a driven person with a bit of stubbornness who knows what I want and I don’t give up until I have achieved it.
Motivation: Why I would like to win this year’s Miss Summer Meet is because it has always been such a big dream of mine that I have had for many years. I was in the last year and came third, but this year I would like to take it all home and show other women and men that if you just want and believe in it, you will achieve your dreams no matter how big they may be!

33 years old living in southern Dalarna with my husband and kids. Together with my partner I share an interest in the rockabilly culture. Although I may be categorised more as a ragger who drives an old Chevy from -58 in working condition.
Mixes my clothing style with both repro and retro, the home as well.
I was “raggarbitten” as a child when my mother always had to stand up as a driver. I totally fell for the cars, the style of clothing, the music and above all the community.
Reasoning: For me, Summer Meet is the best meeting and the one I look forward to when the winter is at its coldest. I’ve been attending since ’99, albeit in earlier years. It is a challenge for me with social contexts as I am very shy in meetings, so it is also a great challenge even if the dream of attending is greater. Hope to see you there!

I’m a 30 year old Finnish full-live pinup girl,  living my life with my biggest passion!

Enthusiasm to pinup style, old cars, music and living in vintage home – couldn’t be happier. I’ve been working with disabled people over ten years and now soon-to-be practical nurse also. Kinda hard work but it makes more important to spend my freetime doing the things I love – adventures, thrifting, seeing new places and people and hopefully finding my own place-to-be and family with someone special finally. Although it’s lovely to have my own house, four pets and my dearest foster kid, I know there’s more to come ❤️

Motivering: I’d be a great Miss Summer Meet because of my passion and sharing this lifestyle so fully.

Am a girl of 41 years, born and raised in Västerås!
Have 2 children and a cat that lives with me. Currently studying at a distance to stress educator. In 2022 I got my diagnosis of fibromyalgia but it does not stop me. Is a girl with skin on her nose and not afraid to say what I think. Since the age of 9 I have loved cars and since the age of 15 I have also loved clothes, second hand and flea markets.
Motivations: It is my dream to become Miss Västerås Summer Meet. We only have one life and I believe in living life to the fullest! Because life is too short and you should do everything that you think is fun and exciting. The last 2 years there has been a lot of personal development for me after losing 2 close family members. I believe in development and the joy of life. Appreciation and gratitude. My dream before I die.

I am a tough girl of 23 years from Arboga who loves everything that has to do with the 50s and 60s. I like to collect retro/vintage stuff and decorate my home with it.
Motivation: Would be a fun thing to win Miss Västerås Summer Meet 2024!

New pinup of 28 years, who tried to compete in Rättvik last year and who after they became completely stuck! Also participated in Miss Winter 2024. Previously, I have run in the other direction when a camera comes out, but with pinup I have gained the courage to develop. And now there is no stop but only the gas at the bottom!
In everyday life I work as a correctional officer. I live with my wonderful partner Thomas and 3 children every other week.
Becoming Miss Summer Meet 2024 would be an incredible honour and a kickstart in my dream journey in pinup!

Rockabilly / Oldstyle loving 50-year-old woman living in Falun who in 2023 took the step out and signed up for her first competition. Lives in the style as much as possible both in terms of home decor, clothes for everyday life as well as parties and also the car interest has existed since the 1990s. The rumble in the spring when the cars wake up after the winter hibernation is music to my ears. Västerås has been visited many times over the years. I am a co-owner of a 1957 Pontiac and am just as comfortable in the garage tinkering with something or standing on stage.
Motivation: To be able to give an ego boost to all women. Show that it’s never too late to take the plunge, live your style and have fun.

I am a full-time pinup girl and I identify my style as 50s housewife/40s working girl. I work in an office which allows me to look like myself even at work. I love knitting and sewing. I actually studied at night school to become a tailor while working just to be able to sew my own clothes. I love the scene (open-minded people, sisterhood, fun and wonderful friends, space to be me) and the aesthetics of the culture. I feel like finding pinup, about 7 years ago, has meant finding myself. It’s really been a journey from then to now, both mentally and physically, and I wouldn’t change anything because it’s all led to where I am now. And I love being myself today. <3
Motivation: I would be honoured to be in the final of Miss Summer Meet 2024. I am funny, smiling and helpful. I love being around people and making everyone feel welcome. Miss Summer Meet – the title suits me because I am optimistic, open-minded and a full-time pinup girl with a huge love for the 40s and 50s. Honestly, just being part of the event as one of the lucky 10 would be an amazing experience.

Happy, glamorous, sweetheart of 53 years from Mölnycke.
Reasoning: I want to show that I am aware of my complete adequacy, with style, charm, presence and flirtatiousness I can take over a room, company or similar and thus own the situation and people’s interest.

Miss Biscayne is me, 24 years old and a new mum when the competition is. I have been in two competitions before and took second place in both. Miss Ratfink 2023 and Miss Winter 2024. I grew up in the rugby culture and have a Chevy 58a that I hold dear.
Motivations: I want to win Miss Summer Meet 2024 to show that even a tired new mother can take her own time to do her hair, clothes and make-up and live her pinup dream for a day.

I am a happy 21 year old girl from Surahammar. I grew up with American cars and rockabilly and it is one of the best and funniest things I know! I think my interest in 50/60’s clothes and hairstyles comes mainly from the fact that my mother always dressed in nice retro dresses when cruising when I was little. This year, my beloved cheva, which is also my first own car, is finally ready after much renovation and will be so much fun to finally take it out on the Summer Meet!
Motivation: I participated for the first time last year and it was my very first pinup competition I did. I was super nervous and didn’t feel as confident on stage as I do now. I managed to participate in a few more competitions during the summer after Summer Meet and feel that I got more meat on my bones this time🙂 therefore I feel for a revenge this year, and this is of course still a dream I have had for many years!

I’m Miss Bella Divine your friendly neighborhood, 26 year old Norwegian gal with a love for all things 50s! Picture this: a dash of Marilyn’s charm, a sprinkle of Audrey’s grace, and a whole lot of zest for life.

By day, I’m your not-so-secret weapon in the world of crime-solving, working as a criminal intelligence analyst. But by night, you’ll find me trading my magnifying glass for a poodle skirt, dancing the night away to Elvis tunes and dreaming of cruising in those classic American cars.

Speaking of which, if there’s a vintage car show in town, you can bet I’m there, channeling my inner grease monkey and swooning over those sleek rides. And let’s not forget my little partner-in-crime, my 5-year-old son, who’s already got his hair slicked back with brylcream and knows the lyrics to every Elvis song by heart!

But hey, I’m not all about solving mysteries and swooning over the 50s. I’m also a social butterfly, always up for a good chat and a laugh over a milkshake or two. So, if you ever spot me at the local diner or hitting the dance floor at a retro party, don’t be shy to come say hi!

Here’s to celebrating the timeless charm of the 50s and making memories that’ll last a lifetime. Let’s rock ‘n’ roll, folks!” 🎶✨

I’m an almost 23-year-old, now living in a whining belt, with a partner and two cats. I work as a lorry driver, and in my spare time I do everything from dancing and weight training to baking and being out in the woods. In other words, I am a very diverse person.
I grew up with cars and engines, and my interest in culture has only increased over the years! There is nothing like cruising around, with the wonderful people that are part of the culture!
I have just started my journey as a pinup, so this is really exciting!
Motivation: It would have been an honour to carry the title of Miss Summer Meet 2024, but mainly it would have been so cool to prove to myself that I actually dared to participate! To have had the opportunity to challenge myself, in such a fun way!

I am a 30-year-old valley girl who loves the retro spirit. Everything about the culture makes me feel at home.
I am the mother of a son who also loves the culture and he grew up with the Summer Meet, that you go there every summer, also other car meetings.
Everything from cars to crocheting is something I do when I’m not working at my beloved petrol station that I’ve been at for 10 years.
People are something I love to make happy knowing that I can help in some small way. Happy and cheerful most of the time, but I can keep a tight rein on myself if needed.
Motivations: If I were to become Miss Summer Meet 2024, I would feel that I am living up to myself. Also be a great role model for young people that you can do it no matter where you come from. And how tough you have had it in life. I WANT to be a role model and that is why I would like to be Miss Summer Meet 2024!

I am a happy and cheerful valley girl of almost 38 years old who loves the rockabilly culture.
Have 3 children, 2 of them are adults.
Works at a preschool and is also a trained nurse that I want to work extra as. Will be so happy to help and be there for both children and our elderly.
My interests are everything with the 50s, the home is adorned with lots of teak and 40-50s. The music is absolutely wonderful, the cars, the clothes, the style, yes everything!
Have also been photographed a few times in pinup style and it is so much fun.
There are a lot of flea markets and car meetings in the summer.
Otherwise, I spend time with my beloved family, partner, my children and bonus children.
I meet friends when I can and spend a lot of time in the stables. As horses are also a great interest.
Motivation: I came in second place last year and am so grateful and happy and had not intended to apply again this year, but I also feel that I want to compete again and get the chance to be miss Summer Meet as it would be an honour to represent you and be on all merch. It is a dream and you have to dare to invest 🥰.
