La vie est une fleur dont l'amour est le miel Fleur is the french for flower and I've chosen this language for a good reason.

Over the past 5 years, I've had the opportunity to travel a lot to Paris and I've always tried to catch every moment, and detail of this delightful city through the eyes of the designer inside me.

More Paris is full of surprises mainly for us, artists. In fact, I believe the city is a museum itself. Every corner of any street has something inspiring. But, theres something I particularly love and I want to address here: The Palais Garnier.

Built between 1861 and 1875, this opera house is a dream made true for many of us, who love somptuosité.

Garnier, the architect of this magnificient building, said that the style he proposed was not Grecian nor Roman/baroque, he created something new and called it Napoleonic: Luxurious at its best.

Fleur is inspired in this palace which, in fact, has some similar letters inside.

Garnier put his name at the ceiling of the Rotonde des Abonnés: Letters are interlacing each other with nicely done art nouveau curves.

I thought I could take this idea and achieve something very delicate and imposing at the same time if the font consisted entirely of caps with the logic of a didone and a bit of art-nouveau.

This mix of elegance and flamboyance gave birth to Fleur which has a wide range of uses but was mainly intended for perfumes, fashion magazines, storefronts, book covers or logos.

Not only you'll find many decorative glyphs, but also a vast amount of unique ligatures will make you really adore this font.

Get Fleur and profite de la vie. TECHNICAL As suggested above, the font has many open-type coded alternates and a vast amount of unique ligatures.

Install the font in applications that support them, like Adobe Illustrator of Photoshop.

Stay Classy! ...with the suave new Stay Classy Font Duo consisting of a sophisticated signature-style script, and an elegant, classy, all-caps serif font.

With impeccably refined curves and silky smooth edges, the Stay Classy Font Duo is perfect for adding a classy, modern touch to your projects.

Perfect for branding, weddings, social media, product design, stationery and advertising - Stay Classy is versatile enough to add that elegant element to just about any project where a special touch of class is required.

More THE SCRIPT : To make the script appear as natural as possible in your designs , I have included 2 sets of opentype stylistic lowercase alternates - one of which includes the elegant end letters.

Words look more naturally finished off if end letters are formed with a subtle up-curve.

Last but certainly not least, a large selection of 30 carefully styled character ligatures ( letter combinations ) have also been built in ( see previews above ) .

For those after a more rustic, original look. THE SERIF : The Serif includes carefully constructed built-in opentype kerning pairs to ensure impeccable letter spacing throughout the font.

Typically, in any all-caps serif font, there are certain letter pairs (such as OV AW AT AY AV WO and many more ) that often look incorrectly spaced when coupled together, due to their natural dimensions.

Built-in opentype kerning pairs eliminate this issue - meaning perfectly balanced letter spacing no matter what you type.

Looking at some specimen books of printing types of late nineteenth century, I found many ornamented capitals for headings among the typefaces.

Most of them showed a flourish like a tuscan serif - a characteristic trait of a peculiar capital lettering made with brush.

Dress is the result of the mash up between that influence and the Didone style - perfect for display.

To decorate, to adorn, to dress a design piece is the intention of this family, adapted to the twenty-first century.

The font should embellish book covers, publications, packagings, movie posters, greeting cards, stationery, among other uses.

Additionally, Dress matches very well with Limon Script. More Started up by the authors hand, Dress is a professional work, accurate, well spaced, with ligatures and alternates for uppercases, initials, endings and figures.

Each variable contains more than 1200 glyphs with plenty of OpenType features and extensive Western, Central and Eastern European language support.

The characters of the shades, inlines and outlines were not automatically made.

Instead, they were drawn one by one in order to take care of every detail, even the change of pressure of the hairlines.

The main member of this family is the Base font which can be used alone or decorated with the layers: Shade One or Shade Two, Inline One or Inline Two and Outline.

In this way, experienced designers will create their own combinations. On the other hand, there are multi-layered fonts that make Dress easier to use: Dress Combo One to Five.

Additionally, Dress Deco adorns the beginning and the ending of the words (1) while the Ornaments decorates the whole design.

The family package contains all this thirteen options. Lets Dress your work! (1) Take a look at the Instructions on the Gallery Section.
