Are you looking for a famous person fancy dress costume? There are some stars whose very name conjures up
iconic images, whether from TV, music or films. If we were to mention that Tom Cruise is 50 today (born Syracuse, New York) what costumed image would immediately spring to mind? One of the most obvious might possibly be Maverick from the 1986 film ‘Top Gun’. Take a look at our Aviator costume, it is ideal for this character. Alternatively, as the film ‘Rock of Ages’ is still doing the rounds, you might consider a take-off of his role as eighties rockstar Stacee Jaxx. Then there is his ‘Austin Powers’ impression in the ‘Austinpussy’ segment of the Goldmember film, or what about taking the historical route and reprising his role as Lestat de Lioncourt in the 1996 film ‘Interview with a Vampire’. Whatever image you are looking for we cannot claim to make you look like Tom Cruise (although perhaps we can, considering there is now a new Tom Cruise character mask on the market) but we do have suitable costumes for all the above personifications and look forward to helping you out here at Props & Frocks.
