A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. The design shows calligraphic construction with tapered terminals, delicate bracketed serifs, and crisp, knife-like joins that create a lively, shimmering texture. Proportions feel slightly condensed with long ascenders and descenders, while round letters remain open and fluid. Numerals and capitals maintain the same high-contrast, sculpted rhythm, with several glyphs featuring elegant swash-like entry or exit strokes.
This font is well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and display typography where elegance and motion are desirable. It can support short-to-medium editorial text at comfortable sizes, and it’s a natural fit for luxury packaging, beauty and fashion identities, book covers, and formal invitation work.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward attitude. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic motion convey sophistication and a sense of ceremony, leaning more toward expressive refinement than neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice through an expressive, calligraphic italic—pairing traditional letterform structure with heightened contrast and refined hairlines for high-end, attention-grabbing typography.
The italic angle is assertive and consistent, producing strong forward momentum in text. Fine details and hairlines are prominent, so the face reads best where printing or rendering can preserve its delicate strokes.
