A high-contrast serif with a consistent rightward slant and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The design shows vertical stress, sharp hairline serifs, and crisp terminals, with thin connecting strokes that heighten the sense of elegance. Uppercase forms are stately and relatively narrow in feel, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with lively, calligraphic curves and tapered joins. Numerals follow the same contrast pattern, pairing sturdy verticals with delicate hairlines for a polished, display-forward rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine layouts, and brand-led typography where a refined, high-contrast voice is desirable. It can work for short paragraphs at comfortable sizes with ample leading, and it particularly shines in large settings for titles, packaging, and event-oriented materials such as invitations.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, evoking luxury publishing and fashion-oriented typography. Its slanted, high-contrast construction adds a sense of movement and sophistication, while the sharp hairlines contribute a poised, upscale character.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast italic serif: elegant, energetic, and attention-grabbing. Its sharp hairlines and pronounced stress suggest a focus on premium presentation and editorial sophistication.
In longer text, the contrast and slant create a vivid texture with sparkling highlights from the hairlines, especially around rounded letters and serifs. The letterforms read as intentionally stylized rather than utilitarian, prioritizing elegance and impact over neutrality.
