Not gilt-free.
1. Marni hits a sweet spot. Parisian pâtisserie Ladurée’s love for fashion results in a collaboration with fashion house Marni. Incorporated into the box design are some of Marni’s signature elements — polka dots and a [gold] flower. In response, Ladurée’s pastry chef, Philippe Andrieu, baked up coordinating chocolate macarons covered in gold leaf // 2. Cushy cash cow. Gold-painted cowhair cushion by Maison de Vacances, available at Via Maris NYC.
