A flowing, calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes appear brush- or pointed-pen inspired, with tapered entries and exits, hairline upstrokes, and fuller downstrokes that create a lively, swinging rhythm. Letterforms are compact and generally narrow, with a relatively small x-height and long, graceful ascenders and descenders. Capitals feature generous loops and occasional swash-like flourishes, while lowercase maintains a connected, continuous feel with smooth joins and rounded counters.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings such as logos, boutique branding, invitations, greeting cards, beauty/fashion packaging, and social media graphics. It excels in headlines and name-style treatments where its flourishes and contrast can be appreciated, and is less suited to dense body copy at small sizes.
The font conveys a polished, romantic tone—fashion-forward and upscale, yet still personal and handwritten. Its high-contrast strokes and sweeping curves suggest formality and finesse, making text feel celebratory and expressive rather than utilitarian.
Designed to emulate expressive modern calligraphy with a refined, editorial finish. The intention appears to prioritize graceful motion, contrast, and decorative capital forms to create a premium handwritten look for display typography.
Spacing and stroke energy vary slightly across letters, reinforcing the hand-drawn character. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slender forms and tapered terminals, visually consistent with the alphabet. The overall color on the page is light and airy due to fine hairlines, with stronger emphasis where downstrokes thicken.
