A delicate, high-contrast script built from thin hairlines and sharper, slightly heavier downstrokes. The letterforms lean strongly forward and use long entry/exit strokes, with many capitals and select lowercases featuring extended loops and swashes. Counters are open and oval, ascenders and descenders are tall, and the lowercase maintains a small, understated body relative to the prominent vertical rhythm. Stroke joins feel pen-driven and fluid, with generous curves and occasional tapered terminals that give the set a light, floating texture.
This face suits wedding suites, event stationery, beauty and boutique branding, and short display lines where its swashes can shine. It works best for headlines, names, and pull quotes rather than dense text, and benefits from larger sizes and careful tracking to keep the hairlines clear.
The overall tone is graceful and formal, with a romantic, invitation-like polish. Its looping swashes add a soft theatricality—more celebratory than everyday—while the airy weight keeps it feeling gentle and premium.
The design appears intended to emulate formal pen lettering with expressive capitals and a refined, fashion-forward contrast. It prioritizes elegance and flourish over utility, aiming to create a distinctive, celebratory signature in display settings.
Capitals are notably expressive and can occupy significantly more space due to their flourishes, creating dramatic word openings. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slender forms and curved terminals, reading best when given ample size and spacing.
