A high-contrast italic serif with a distinctly condensed, vertical rhythm and crisp hairline finishing. Strokes show strong calligraphic stress with thick, sculpted main stems and very thin joins and serifs, producing a sharp, glossy page color. Serifs are fine and precise, with tapered entry/exit strokes and occasional wedge-like terminals that emphasize speed and direction. The overall geometry is tall and narrow, with tight counters, lively curves, and a consistent rightward slant across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and slanted rhythm can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, posters, and pull quotes. It can also work for short subheads or deck lines when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The font reads as polished and dramatic, with a couture, magazine-forward elegance. Its sharp contrast and energetic italic give it a sense of motion and confidence, leaning toward luxurious and slightly theatrical rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, fashion-oriented italic voice with strong contrast and a compact footprint, maximizing elegance and impact in limited horizontal space. Its consistent slant, sharp serifs, and sculpted thick–thin transitions suggest a focus on refined display settings and brand expressiveness.
Uppercase forms feel stately and streamlined, while the lowercase shows more fluidity in bowls and tails, reinforcing an editorial voice. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast construction, and the punctuation and short words in the sample text keep a crisp, refined texture at display sizes.
