Women and girls of the 1950's dressed conservatively. Here is a link that shows patterns of dresses that were popular in that decade.
Poodle skirts, bobby socks, saddle shoes, pony tails, and nylon scarves either tied around the neck or the pony tail were popular among the teens.

On the link below, scroll down for the real "poodle skirt" fashion.

In all honesty, if you want to win, you should dress in an actual 50's style outfit.

Poodle Skirts were extremely popular during the 50s. You've probably seen them, the big pink skirts with the little poodles in the corner. This skirt with a tucked in tshirt would work. Also, cat eye glasses and chiffon scarves tied around the neck to accessorize.

You could also go with something like from a 1950s diner:
