A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and weighty, sculpted main strokes. The letterforms lean with an assertive angle and show a crisp, cut-in feel where strokes taper into pointed terminals and delicate serifs. Curves are taut and elliptical, counters are relatively open, and the rhythm alternates between thick vertical-ish stems and threadlike connections, producing a lively, sparkling texture. Capitals read as elegant and slightly flamboyant, while the lowercase introduces prominent entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like terminals that add motion.
Best used for display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, boutique packaging, and poster titles where the hairlines and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It also works well for short, expressive pull quotes or wordmarks that benefit from a refined, italic voice.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical—suited to glamour, couture, and high-end editorial voice. Its sharp contrasts and sweeping italic flow communicate sophistication with a hint of drama, evoking classic print luxury and modern fashion mastheads.
The font appears designed to deliver an upscale, editorial italic with pronounced contrast and expressive, calligraphy-informed terminals. Its proportions and finishing details prioritize elegance and visual impact over neutrality, aiming to stand out in premium branding and display contexts.
The design emphasizes long, fine joins and delicate finishing strokes, which create striking elegance at display sizes but can appear fragile in dense settings. Numerals mirror the same calligraphic contrast and angled energy, keeping the set consistent across letters and figures.
