A delicate, calligraphy-inspired script with tall ascenders and descenders, narrow proportions, and pronounced stroke-contrast that shifts between hairline curves and thicker verticals. Letterforms lean mostly upright and are built from smooth, continuous curves with frequent entry/exit strokes, giving the set a flowing rhythm even when letters are shown unconnected. Terminals are often tapered and rounded, with occasional teardrop-like joins and gentle swashes; capitals feature more elaborate loops and extended cross-strokes for a decorative, handwritten finish.
Best suited to short display text where its fine strokes and flourishes can be appreciated—wedding suites, invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, and packaging accents. It can also work for pull quotes or headings when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The overall tone feels graceful and lightly playful—like formal handwriting dressed up with a few flourishes. It reads as romantic and personable rather than stern or mechanical, making the texture feel airy and expressive.
Designed to emulate polished, formal handwriting with a fashion-oriented elegance, emphasizing graceful loops, tall proportions, and decorative capitals for expressive display typography.
The uppercase set is notably more ornate than the lowercase, creating a clear hierarchy for initials and display settings. Numerals echo the same looping, calligraphic construction, with several figures using open curves and soft hooks that match the script’s rhythm.
