Lucky Dip, aka Lauren Bradley, was crowned the 2016 Miss Camperdown Cruise pin up competition winner.
"I think it's a great opportunity for young women to express themselves," she said. "I came last year and had such a good time, I knew I had to come back."
Miss Nadia Faye was runner up and also took out the Miss Congeniality prize.
The festival drew thousands of well-dressed visitors to the town.

It’s a real spectacle, there's nothing like it in Victoria.

Healesville's Zoe and John Hannon made the trip to the festival in their 1964 XM Ford with son Noah, nine months.
They bought along a troupe of dancers from their rock and roll dancing school Alley Catz.
"We have been coming to the Cruise for six years now," Mrs Hannon said.
Greg Jenkins, from Keilor, and Brydie McLatchie, from Melbourne were among the Alley Catz group.
"We come down for the dancing, and I've spent time looking at the cars too,” Mr Jenkins said.
Ms McLatchie said she would look to enter the pin up competition next year.
"The bands are great, and there's always a lovely atmosphere," she said.
Pat Ferguson and Alison Healey, from Mount Evelyn, dressed up in their best rockabilly gear for the weekend, with friends Frances and Barry Hayward, from Milgrove, also looking stylish.
"We love the fashion and stalls," Ms Healey said. "Everyone in the town is so friendly. It’s a real spectacle, there's nothing like it in Victoria."
The Tiki Bar was a hotspot throughout the festival.

"I come all four days," she said. "I have a collection of Tiki mugs."
Warrnambool's Elissa Coulahan-Clarke was kept busy in her custom caravan.
The hair salon on wheels offered punters the opportunity to have their hair styled in vintage, rockabilly, psychobilly and pin up hairstyles. She said she would look to take the Rockabilly Heads Tiki Hair Hut van to similar festivals.
