Aver Italic by Lauren Thompson is a free serif font with an elegant, sharply slanted profile. Strong thick-thin contrast gives the lettering a crisp, editorial quality. Long curves and fine serifs add movement without excessive ornament.
Fashion and cultural publishing are especially suited to its refined, expressive drawing. It also brings a literary note to book covers. For boutique packaging and cosmetics branding, the sweeping capitals can shape a graceful product identity with a hint of drama.
