9. Antique Book Cover (free)

Here’s another gorgeous vintage-style font, perfect for signage, print materials, and, of course book covers! However, as it’s relatively simple, this lovely fancy font style could work equally well on more modern designs. 

10. Fontleroy Brown

If you decide to generate fancy fonts to copy on your Instagram bio, this is likely one of Unicode character styles you’ll end up with. However, Fontleroy Brown is a lot more subtle and elegant, making it much more versatile as well.

11. Mioge (from $12)

If fancy fonts for you mean Art Deco style, then you’re going to love Mioge. It could make a perfect addition to your social media posts, in case you want to create an elegant Instagram theme. 

12. Rottenburg Decorative (free)

On the other hand, if you’re not a fan of minimalist, a font like Rothenburg Decorative might be right up your alley. It’s another option that looks like online generated fancy text, except these letters have a much cleaner finish than Unicode symbols, and can be used in a variety of ways.
