A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a largely vertical stress. Strokes terminate in crisp, sharp serifs with minimal bracketing, and the hairlines become extremely fine in joins, crossbars, and diagonals. Capitals feel stately and structured with broad, confident main stems, while lowercase shows compact bowls and tight apertures that emphasize the bold–hairline interplay. Curves are smooth and taut, giving counters a slightly pinched, sculpted feel; spacing and widths vary across the set, producing an energetic rhythm in text while maintaining a cohesive, formal texture.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, posters, and elegant invitations where its contrast and crisp serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the fine details.
The overall tone is elegant and commanding, leaning toward fashion and editorial sophistication. The extreme contrast and razor-like details add drama and a sense of premium polish, making the voice feel ceremonial and high-end rather than casual.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif voice with maximum contrast and a polished, print-like finish. Its structure prioritizes elegance and visual impact, aiming for a luxurious editorial presence across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
The design’s finest hairlines and sharp terminals create a glittering, engraved look at display sizes, while the dense dark strokes can form strong typographic color in paragraphs. The numerals follow the same contrast logic, with distinctive thick verticals and delicate connecting strokes that read as poised and formal.
