A high-fashion italic serif with pronounced vertical stress and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Stems and main curves carry substantial weight while hairlines and serifs drop to needle-thin strokes, creating a crisp, shimmering texture. Serifs are fine and sharp with minimal bracketing, and many joins taper into pointed, calligraphic terminals. Proportions feel tall and somewhat narrow, with a short x-height and long ascenders/descenders that add air and elegance. The italic angle is steady and fluid, and the figures echo the same contrast and slanted, refined construction.
Best suited for display roles such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, cover lines, luxury packaging, and identity work where elegance and contrast are desirable. It also fits formal printed pieces like invitations or programs, and can work for short text passages in high-quality editorial layouts when set with generous spacing and size.
The font reads luxurious and poised, with an editorial sophistication associated with couture, magazines, and classic high-end branding. Its strong contrast and delicate hairlines give it a polished, dramatic voice that feels formal and expressive rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic with a classical foundation—combining sharp, hairline detailing and a graceful slant to create a premium, attention-getting typographic voice for upscale and editorial contexts.
In text settings the rhythm is lively, with thin connecting strokes and tapered entries that emphasize motion and sparkle. The delicate hairlines and fine details suggest it will look best when given sufficient size and reproduction quality, where the contrast can be fully appreciated.
