A slender, high-contrast handwritten script with tall, narrow proportions and pronounced vertical emphasis. Strokes alternate between fine hairlines and thicker downstrokes, with tapered entries/exits and occasional teardrop-like terminals that suggest a pen or brush. Letterforms are loosely connected in words, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a lively rhythm; capitals are more expressive, featuring loops and sweeping curves. Spacing is relatively airy for a script, helping individual characters remain distinct despite the delicate stroke weight.
Well-suited to short, prominent settings where delicacy and flourish are assets: invitations, greeting cards, wedding collateral, product labels, and boutique or beauty branding. It also works as an accent face for editorial headings, pull quotes, and cover lines when ample size and breathing room preserve the fine hairlines.
The font reads as graceful and personable, balancing formal calligraphic cues with a slightly playful, modern handwriting feel. Its thin hairlines and looping forms lend a romantic, boutique tone, while the narrow build keeps it polished and poised rather than casual or bulky.
Designed to evoke pen-written elegance in a compact, fashion-forward silhouette, offering expressive capitals and refined contrast for display typography. The overall construction prioritizes charm and sophistication over utilitarian text readability at small sizes.
Capitals stand out with decorative flourishes and occasional extended strokes that can create prominent vertical accents in headlines. Numerals follow the same contrast and narrowness, with simple, slightly calligraphic shaping that pairs naturally with the letterforms.
