Partridge Thin Oblique by Sam Wang is a free hairline italic serif with sweeping curves and a restrained editorial air. Its very fine strokes change gently in width, and the pronounced slant keeps the letters moving. The forms are spare but graceful.
It will appeal to boutique brands and independent publishers seeking refined lettering for logos and packaging. Magazine covers and invitations can also draw on its airy, handwritten quality. The long curves suit the polished restraint of fashion and beauty imagery.
