Leslie David paints the town (i.e. Paris) rainbow in these brilliant postcards for Colette

Date

To take an ever-famous contemporary French graphic designer and pair them with the coolest shop in Paris is asking for trouble. Well, perhaps trouble’s the wrong word, because the result of this collaboration is some seriously drool-worthy postcards courtesy of Leslie David for Colette. Some satisfying thick daubs of fluorescent paint over some old Parisian postcards create lo-fi images pleasingly reminiscent of the 1950s horror film The Blob and, of course, makes you want to grab some stamps and send them to your trendier friends immediately.
