Tsumori Chisato has teamed up with French macaron boutique Ladurée, art-directing a special cherry-blossom-themed set for the brand’s 150th anniversary. The Paris-based tea salon, which has outlets across Europe, Asia and the US selling its coveted pastel-colored macarons, decided to honor its landmark birthday by partnering with Japanese creator Chisato.
The designer’s trademark colorful style is seen in the packaging she designed for the cherry-blossom-themed set, scheduled to go on sale March 1.
WWD reports February 8 that the designer worked alongside French chef Vincent Lemains on the conception of the pink cherry-blossom-flavored macarons, while a candle inspired by the flower has also been created to accompany the set.
