Author's note

Parisienne by Astigmatic is a free calligraphic script with sweeping capitals and fine, sharply tapered strokes. Its letters lean forward with lively, continuous motion, and the changing stroke widths recall a pointed pen. Long entry and exit flourishes give the writing an elegant, fashion-conscious silhouette.

Ribbon illustrations and delicate line drawings pick up its looping movement, a useful link for wedding invitations, perfume packaging, boutique branding, fashion editorials, and restaurant menus. Its flourishes can extend into graceful floral artwork or ornamental borders.
