A delicate serif with extremely thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, producing a bright, sparkling texture. The letterforms are noticeably slanted with a smooth, flowing rhythm, and many strokes show tapering terminals and fine, sharp finishing details. Serifs are light and understated, often reading as small wedges or flicks rather than heavy brackets, while round characters keep a tall, narrow feeling with open counters. Overall spacing and proportions emphasize verticality and lightness, giving text a poised, high-end look.
Best suited to display typography where its hairline contrast and elegant slant can be appreciated—magazine headlines, pull quotes, covers, lookbooks, and high-end branding. It can work for short text passages in generous sizes and leading, especially in print-oriented layouts where the fine details remain visible.
The tone is sophisticated and polished, with a fashion-editorial sensibility. Its pronounced slant and hairline detailing feel expressive and upscale rather than utilitarian, suggesting luxury, culture, and careful art direction.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice by combining extreme contrast with a consistent slant and finely tapered finishing strokes. The intent is to provide a distinctive, premium texture for titles and brand-forward typography rather than everyday body copy.
In the samples, the very fine horizontals and joins create a fragile appearance at smaller sizes, while larger settings show off the graceful contrast and tapered terminals. Numerals and capitals maintain the same airy construction, helping headlines feel cohesive and refined.
