Mamzelle Expanded Italic

Mamzelle Expanded Italic font by Yves Michel is a free calligraphy typeface that trades stiff formality for easy, confident charm. Wide, flowing letters glide into each other with inky smoothness, giving every word a handwritten sweep that feels both polished and approachable. The stroke weight is generous without being heavy, so the script stays legible even at smaller sizes while still looking lush and expressive at larger scales.

Using Mamzelle Expanded Italic, you can give wedding invitations, beauty branding, bakery logos, boutique signage, book covers, and social media graphics a warm, tailored signature. The slightly expanded rhythm lets words breathe, which makes longer names and short phrases especially striking. This free font pairs effortlessly with a clean sans serif for body text—set Mamzelle for headlines or names, then support it with a simple, neutral companion to keep the focus on its graceful curves.
