ReplyDeleteEver After is my favourite frilly movie - because that moment where Danielle sweeps into the ball in that exquisite gown, when she thought she'd never be able to go, is so beautiful - and that moment when the stepmother rips a wing off her and crushes all her dreams is simply heart-rending. <3
ReplyDeleteDeleted my last post so I could expand on my thoughts! :D
ReplyDeleteI think The Little Princess is one of the most lolita movies because it's about overcoming odds to pursue a beautifal life and mentality.
my frilliest movie? it hasn't come out yet, but the black swan. it's an INTENSE movie about ballet, and it's a little creepy. it's coming out in december, but i know i'll love it.
ReplyDeletei think ballet is really delicate and sweet, like lolita, so ithink it counts :)

In my opinion, the best and "frilliest" movie is Kirsten Dunst's "Marie Antoinette."
ReplyDeleteAlthough not technically Lolita, the extravagantly feminine pastel Rococo fashions and coquettish attitudes are the true root of Lolita, and in the movie they are accompanied by modern alternative music, partying, and drama- like the Japanese subculture.
Lolita forever!

For me my favorite frilly movie is The Addams Family movie XD Specifically for the scenes at the dance they throw. When I was little I used to love watching that part and looking at all the fancy dresses people were wearing in the background. And what Gothic Lolita wouldn't love to live in a dusty and mysterious old mansion?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite frilly movie is Labyrinth. It may not be lolita specific, but it's so magical and adorable and I still think it's a lolita favorite none the less. And I love Sarah's poofy sparkly princess ballgown! Yay princess-ness ^_^
ReplyDeleteMy most recent frilly movie obsession is Enchanted. From the gorgeous animation at the beginning to all the amazing dresses she wears later in the film. Giselle truly looks and acts the part of the princess even when she's surrounded by mundane everyday things and unfavorable situations. And really, who wouldn't love to be able to make dresses like that out of curtains in an hour's time?
ReplyDeleteI really had to think about this one, but I finally decided.
ReplyDeleteMy most cherished movie of all time is BBC's Pride & Prejudice (the one with Colin Firth). I relate so much to Elizabeth. When I dress in Lolita I feel closer to the elegant settings, the delicious language, and lovely fashion. Perhaps that is why I gravitate towards the empire waist dresses. I could rave about this movie for hours. I've seen it so many times I've long since lost count.
My favorite frilliest movie would have to be the princess bride. It's just so lovely and girly!!! I could watch it everyday!
