Top Gun Costume is still in high demand even now, more than 20 years after the legendary Topgun film. After all, who could resist dressing up as Peter ‘Maverick’ Mitchell and strutting their stuff at a party in his uniform and trademark flyer sunglasses.

Due to the fact Top Gun Costume is so popular, there is not so much of it around. Having said that, if your heart is set on dressing up as Maverick for a party, it is best to buy your outfit as soon as possible – especially if you plan on wooing your very own Charlie. Unfortunately, fighter planes cannot be arranged as easily, but if you plan in advance you will be able to find all of the Top Gun fancy dress items you need.

Make sure you find an outfit which is billed as Top Gun costumes – nothing could be worse than ‘making do’ with substandard sunglasses and an outfit. No one wants to be outshined by someone whose Top Gun Costumes are better than his or hers – so go for the best available replica.

But as to the reason why Top Gun Costume is so popular – the answer must lie with Tom Cruise’s depiction of the infamous fighter pilot. At once full of macho bravado and charming vulnerability, Maverick has everything. Although he may not start the film Top Gun being a team player, when Goose is killed, it is clear that he would have done anything for his friend. His romance with Charlie humanises him too, as does his fight to find out what really happened to his father.

Top Gun is an Academy Award winning 1986 American film directed by Tony Scott and produced by Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer in association with Paramount Pictures.

The Top Gun film follows LT Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a young Naval aviator who aspires to be a top fighter pilot in the United States Navy Fighter Weapons School, which trains the top 1% of all Naval aviators. Maverick gets his chance to attend the Top Gun school after one pilot drops out, allowing him and his RIO (Radar Intercept Officer, the "back seater" in the two-man F-14) LTJG Nick 'Goose' Bradshaw to train with the best.
