Rizzo is the coolest character in Grease. Wear a pair of black capri pants, a black blouse, dark glasses and red lipstick.

I think I’d look more like I’m going to work as wouldn’t be a short blouse or too tight trousers!!

My DD did this for fancy dress at school. We had a hire shop with 50s style prom dresses, and we accessorised with shoes and a headband.

Pretend you've misunderstood and cover yourself in butter and engine oil.

Wear a ‘Sandy wig’

eBay or Vinted for any 50s style dress. Lindy Bop dresses always going cheap on eBay.

Agree with PP that Rizzo is the best character in Grease.

You could pick a specific scene eg the sleepover at Frenchy’s house and go with a nightie, a cheap kimono dressing gown and put a couple of rollers in your hair.

Or a khaki jumpsuit and baseball cap like Mrs Murdoch, the car workshop teacher.

Or wear your normal jeans, add a black tshirt, sunglasses and leather jacket and become an honorary T-Bird!
