ABOUT Didonesque

This is Didonesque – a highly versatile and elegantly stylish font family inspired by classic Didone typefaces that are synonymous with luxury brands. It is inherently a display typeface and therefore ideal for headlines, logotype, branding and short runs of text.

Didonesque includes both small caps and petite caps with full European diacritics, you can mix and match these petite caps with regular lowercase glyphs to create interesting unicase-style typography. Other distinguishing features include a higher x-height with shorter ascenders and descenders than traditional Didone typefaces, there are also slight curvatures within the /v/w/y/ characters giving Didonesque its distinctive style.


Didonesque chosen as one of Fontspring’s Best of 2017.

Selected as one of Luc Devroye’s Best of 2016 (Fashion Magazine Type).
