Hair
All different hairstyles grace the streets of an Oktoberfest celebration. Two of the most common looks though are down with curls or pigtails. If you choose to wear yours down, create soft ringlets that cascade over your shoulders. If you want it up, pigtails are a whimsical reminiscent of a traditional German beer wench. Your hair is also not what should be showcased for this event.
Costume
The fashion of Oktoberfest is a whirlwind of color and cleavage. Put on a full skirt, tight ruffled and low cut bodice and you'll fit right in. Many costume shops and online stores cater to this event as well, so do not despair if you do not have anything in your closet. You could change things up and grab a pair of lederhosen, shorts and suspenders and become your male ego for the day as well.
After you have your makeup, hair and costume figured out for Oktoberfest, think about your comfort as well. Wear comfortable shoes or boots, bring extra ponytail holders in case things get too hot and don't forget the sunblock. Even on cooler days, the skin that you are exposing can still become damaged from the sun. This brings us to the most important beauty and fashion tip for Oktoberfest: Choose an attractive stein that matches your look to keep filled all day long.
