This typeface is a high-contrast serif with tall, condensed proportions and a distinctly vertical, fashion-oriented rhythm. Stems are dark and straight while connecting strokes and joins fall to very thin hairlines, producing crisp light–dark patterning in text. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, giving terminals a chiseled, engraved feel rather than a soft, rounded finish. Curves are narrow and controlled, counters are tight, and the overall texture reads as clean, bright, and strongly vertical on the page.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine titling, fashion and beauty applications, and high-end branding where contrast and tall proportions can be featured at larger sizes. It can also work for short subheads, pull quotes, and formal invitations where a refined, high-contrast serif texture is desirable.
The overall tone is polished and ceremonial, with a runway/editorial elegance that feels suited to luxury and institutional contexts. Its dramatic contrast and condensed stance convey seriousness and prestige, with a slightly theatrical, display-forward voice even when set in sentences.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif look with strong verticality and dramatic stroke contrast, prioritizing elegance and impact in display and editorial contexts. Its narrow proportions and sharp detailing suggest a focus on sophisticated typographic color and a premium, traditional sensibility.
In the grid and text samples, capitals dominate with tall silhouettes and narrow bowls, while lowercase maintains a restrained, traditional construction that preserves the typeface’s vertical tension. The figures are similarly slim and contrasty, aligning well with the uppercase width and reinforcing a consistent, columnar cadence in settings.
