This Neo-Rococo rise has been simmering in the cultural ether for some time now. A touchstone is filmmaker Sofia Coppola’s now cult-classic 2006 movie Marie Antoinette. The film featured sequences of aristocratic frivolity and boredom set to a Y2K indie rock soundtrack, capturing the checked-out ennui and the zeitgeist of the 1790s and the mid-aughts. Post-2001, Coppola’s gauzy Rococo dream, with wealthy youths consumed by intrigue and escapist pleasure as revolution and unprecedented change drummed in the distance, struck a chord with the millennial generation.

At the heart of this visually sumptuous film lies a confectionery connection that is as sweet as it is captivating – Ladurée macarons.
