For the first week, I got the best possible question٩(˘◡˘)۶
4. Adéla ještě nevečeřela/Ádela Has Not Had Her Supper Yet
Another Czech film, this time period detective sci-fi comedy. We made a lot of them, it was hard to film something good during socialism.
The influence of edwardian era on lolita shouldn´t be underplayed, which is why I recommend Downton Abbey, but this feels closer to me. Adéla is a very funny detective comedy with great stylization, which makes it cool to watch even if you don´t enjoy the costumes.
Fun fact: Robert Redford was supposed to play main character.
Honorable mention goes to Titanic.
5. Dior a já
Document about fashion designer, which put elegance and femininity back to play in the post-war era.
I don´t know how to talk about documents, but I liked this one. Now you know evrything :).
Dior´s 1950s new look has very similar silhouette to lolita, but it does because of different reasons. Another thing in common is elegance, which is timeless for most of his works.

1. S čerty nejsou žerty/Give the Devil His Due
Classical Czech film from 1985. Best thing about it are princesses Angelína and Adélka. (Adélka is very common nice girl name). First one has many dresses, the second one a bit less, but they are just as pretty. There are some really good costumes, but I wouldn´t expect anything else.

It´s filmed in beautiful Bohemia, which is maybe the pettiest part of our land, so even if you won´t like story or costumes, you will enjoy the sights.
I don´t know if anyone outside of Czechia and Slovakia will really enjoy it, it´s pretty typical Czechoslovakian film. I mean, we have tradition of devils being funny and nice in kids movies. On the other hand, you should watch it if you are going to spend some time here, it´s filled with often quoted lines that you should learn before talking to any Czech person :D.

2. Devil Wears Prada
What does beggining of worst era for style and setting in a fashion magazine in common with egl?
Honest love for fashion. Everyone who likes to watch out for trends, or likes history of it, should watch this movie about people willing to do everything for mode.
Also, Meryl Streep is really chic here. Everyone feeling too old to dress nicely should watch her.
3. Angelika
Even though this might look a bit rough, the story is set in baroque and magnificent French castles. Gothic and baroque - the most lolita-sque of all historical styles.
If beautiful set isn´t enough, you will still love costumes! Angelika has a big wardrobe, so everyone will find something.

If you don´t know this series of films, you should read about it first. It´s quite explicit, so you might prepare for it.

I had some problems translating this, I don´t know why. I love cinema, and I would love to make more in depth analyses, but I think that in this question isn´t enough space for this. Still, I will make a lot of film analysis. I have to train, as it is required in admissions for my dream school.
