I believe the answer is:

rococo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'over-ornate style' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'an endless row with two companies' is the wordplay.
'two companies' means two replacements for 'company'.
'an endless' means to remove the last letter.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'row' with its last letter taken away is 'ro'.
'ro'+'co'+'co'='ROCOCO'

'will cause' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
