This italic serif is drawn with hairline-thin entry and exit strokes contrasted against sharper, slightly thicker main stems, creating a crisp, high-fashion rhythm. Forms are tall and compact, with a pronounced rightward slant and long, tapering terminals that often resolve into needle-like points. Serifs are delicate and minimally bracketed, behaving more like fine wedges and flicks than sturdy feet, and many joins show a calligraphic tension where thick–thin transitions tighten abruptly. Lowercase features a modest x-height with generous ascenders/descenders, and several letters carry subtle flourish cues (notably in the g, j, y, and z) that add movement without becoming fully script.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury branding, and invitations where its high-contrast hairlines and graceful italic motion can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling, especially when printed cleanly or used at larger sizes.
The overall tone is sophisticated and airy, projecting couture polish and a sense of cultivated luxury. Its sharp contrast and italic momentum read as expressive and romantic rather than utilitarian, with a refined, somewhat dramatic sparkle that suits high-end presentation.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial take on classic high-contrast italic serifs—prioritizing elegance, speed, and visual drama over rugged, everyday text durability.
In running text, the narrow set and steep italic angle create a quick, continuous flow, while the extremely fine hairlines can visually fade at small sizes or on low-contrast reproduction. Numerals follow the same elegant contrast and slant, pairing well with the letterforms for editorial-style figures.
