A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered strokes and delicate hairline serifs. The letters lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, showing pronounced thick–thin modulation and pointed terminals. Uppercase forms feel slightly narrow and poised, while the lowercase is more fluid, with generous ascenders/descenders and lively entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and slanted construction, maintaining a consistent, polished texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where its contrast and italic movement can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and luxury branding, and cover typography. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or refined invitations, especially when set with ample size and spacing to protect the thin strokes.
The overall tone is sophisticated and fashion-forward, with a dramatic, luxurious sparkle from the strong contrast. It reads as formal and cultivated rather than casual, evoking classic print typography and high-end editorial styling. The italic motion adds a sense of pace and elegance suitable for expressive emphasis.
The design appears intended as a contemporary, high-contrast italic for expressive typography, pairing classic serif structure with a more theatrical, calligraphy-informed slant. It prioritizes elegance and visual drama over utilitarian, small-size text neutrality.
In running text, the strong contrast and fine hairlines create a crisp, shimmering color that rewards larger sizes and good reproduction. Rounded characters and diagonals show careful tapering, and the italic angle stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping the sample text feel cohesive and intentional.
