Fine high-fashion serif with a wide C and a low ribbon-like g loop
Cigaret
Cigaret is a fine high-fashion serif in which the C opens wide, the bowls round off against slender diagonals, the g drops into a low ribbon loop and the final t rises above the row, so a short name reads as a boutique label.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Cigaret.
The C sweeps a wide open curve, the o and e hold rounded bowls with fine joins, the g returns a low ribbon that curls back under the baseline, and the t lifts its crossbar above the lowercase row. The low ribbon loop is the character: it keeps a word sitting tight, which is why the sample sets one name over a warmly lit portrait. Expressive ligatures and monogram frames ship with the family, so a maker can build a two-letter mark without drawing one. Because the joins are fine, the face wants coated stock from 10 pt and gains from a hot-foil finish on signage. The portrait, the orange highlights and the small caps credit are presentation.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Cigaret’s stroke geometry.
Monogram for a cosmetics label
The shipped monogram frames turn two letters into a mark, and the fine serif keeps a product name elegant at 14 pt on a small carton.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 45 by 90 mm carton: set the product name at 14 pt, place the monogram frame 12 mm above it, and set the volume in a 6 pt caps at the foot so the panel keeps two levels.
Pre-production check
A foil monogram under 10 mm loses its counter; check the plate and keep the frame at 12 mm or wider.
Cover heading for a portrait essay
The open fine forms suit a reflective title, and the wide C holds a two-word heading at 60 pt over a photographic ground.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 cover: set the heading at 60 pt across the calmest band of the portrait, keep 18 mm of clear space under the ribbon g, and set the byline in a 9 pt caps at the foot.
Pre-production check
Fine serifs printed over a lit face lose their hairlines; check the cover proof and either darken the band or move the heading.
Menu card for a boutique wedding
The fashion serif suits a modern suite, and the fine contrast keeps a course heading distinct at 18 pt above the dish lines.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 105 by 210 mm menu: set the course headings at 18 pt, set the dishes at 10 pt in a neutral serif, and keep 14 mm between courses so the ribbon loops sit clear.
Pre-production check
A low g loop printed over a dish line reads as a stray mark; check the proof and keep 10 mm under every descender.
