A high-contrast italic serif with sweeping, calligraphic construction and strongly tapered joins. Strokes move from hairline-thin to bold, inky crescendos, with pointed terminals and subtly flared finishing strokes rather than blunt ends. The letterforms are narrow-to-moderate in feel but vary noticeably in internal widths and counters, creating a lively rhythm across words. Ascenders are tall and elegant, descenders are long and energetic, and the italic slant is pronounced; the lowercase is relatively tall and open, supporting clearer texture than many display italics.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and display settings where its contrast and italic motion can read as intentional style. It’s a strong fit for fashion/editorial layouts, premium branding, and elegant packaging where a refined, expressive serif italic is desired.
The overall tone is sophisticated and expressive, with a fashionable, high-drama personality. Its sharp hairlines and sweeping curves evoke editorial luxury and a slightly theatrical flair, balancing refinement with movement.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion italic voice rooted in calligraphic logic—prioritizing sharp contrast, stylish movement, and a polished editorial texture over utilitarian text neutrality.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation and needle-like serifs reward generous sizing and comfortable spacing; at small sizes the finest hairlines and tight joins may feel fragile. Numerals and capitals share the same sculpted contrast, giving headlines a consistent, polished sparkle.
