And practice with zoom lenses (zoomed in) to get that shallow depth-of-field, playing with different apertures. If no zoom lenses, then take your 50 (or whatever) and move it as close to your subject as possible while still being able to focus.
Just do a series of experiments: move the 50mm in close, tack sharp focus, and shoot frames increasing the aperture by one (or half) each time. Then your 85. Then your zoom. Check out your results and see if you're getting there.
And don't forget a tripod, a remote (or timer), and use the mirror lock-up function. And obviously, your subject needs to remain tack still. Those fuckers like to move!
