A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline terminals. Letterforms are tall and softly condensed, with smooth, continuous curves and a consistently right-leaning stance. Serifs are minimal and razor-fine, often resolving into tapered, calligraphic endings rather than blunt brackets, giving strokes a sharpened, drawn quality. Counters are generous and open, while joins and transitions stay crisp, producing a light, shimmering texture in text.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion lookbooks, cultural editorial layouts, and refined branding moments. It can work for short passages or pull quotes at comfortable sizes where the hairlines remain intact, and it pairs well with restrained layouts that give the letterforms room to breathe.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward fashion and cultural publishing. Its fine detailing and poised slant feel formal and luxurious, with an airy sophistication that reads as contemporary editorial rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on high-contrast italic serifs for premium typography—emphasizing elegance, motion, and crisp refinement. Its narrow rhythm and hairline finishing prioritize visual sophistication and hierarchy in display-led compositions.
Uppercase shapes favor sweeping curves (notably in C, G, O, Q) and long, elegant diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. The lowercase includes a single-storey a and g with understated bowls and hairline links, and numerals share the same refined contrast, with a notably elliptical 0 and slender 1.
