Assassin, designed by P. A. Vannucci, is a free high-contrast serif font with the poised drama and crisp finish of a fashion masthead. Its capitals are tall, sharp, and highly contrasted.
Fashion, beauty, and theatrical subjects suit its elegant but severe drawing, making it useful for magazine covers, fragrance packaging, event posters, and cosmetics cartons. The pronounced stroke changes and sweeping diagonals can turn a name into a recognizable luxury brand mark for labels built around glamour, ceremony, or intrigue.
