try
:hi Normal gui=italic

Not sure if it will propagate to other highlight groups; or maybe put it
in a custom colorscheme and see if it works better.

Warning: I think that setting 'guifont' will change the Normal highlight
to font=blablabla so order matters: in your vimrc, set 'guifont' first
and the Normal highlight afterwards.

Best regards,
Tony.
