A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and powerful, dark main strokes that create a crisp, sculpted rhythm. Stems and terminals show subtle flaring, giving edges a chiselled, ink-trap-free bite rather than flat slab endings. Serifs are fine and pointed, with bracketless or minimally bracketed joins; curves are smooth and slightly condensed in places, while counters remain open enough for display clarity. The uppercase has strong vertical presence and elegant modulation, and the lowercase balances sturdy stems with delicate connecting strokes; the figures follow the same contrast pattern, with distinctive, calligraphic tails on forms like 2 and 9.
Best suited to display contexts such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and poster typography where contrast and sharp detail can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial decks or pull quotes, but longer text benefits from generous size and spacing to keep hairlines from fading.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, reading as premium and editorial with a hint of vintage glamour. The extreme stroke modulation and razor-like serifs project confidence and sophistication, making text feel curated rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice with flared finishing and dramatic contrast, prioritizing impact and elegance over neutrality. Its letterforms aim to provide a crisp, boutique editorial look that stands out in branding and headline settings.
In paragraphs, the dark-heavy strokes create a strong typographic color and pronounced vertical cadence, while the hairlines can visually shimmer at smaller sizes. Wide, dramatic diagonals (notably in letters like V, W, and X) amplify a sense of sparkle and tension typical of high-contrast display serifs.
