A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines, sturdy vertical stems, and a consistent inline cut that runs through the main strokes, giving the letters a carved, engraved look. Serifs are crisp and largely bracketed, with pointed terminals on diagonals and neatly finished curves in bowls and rounds. Proportions read on the wider side in capitals, with open counters and a steady, upright rhythm that stays clear even in dense text. Numerals follow the same contrast and inline treatment, with the “8” and “9” showing prominent internal striping that emphasizes the hollowed effect.
Best used for display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, invitations, and theatrical posters. It can work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes where the inline detail can be appreciated, but it will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the cut-in line remains distinct.
The inline detailing and strong contrast create a refined, theatrical tone—equal parts classic print tradition and showy sophistication. It feels suited to premium, fashion-forward communication where elegance and impact matter more than neutrality.
This design appears intended to translate a classic high-fashion serif into an engraved, inline display style—preserving traditional proportions and contrast while adding a decorative channel that increases sparkle and perceived depth. The goal is likely to provide an elegant, attention-grabbing voice for branding and headline typography without relying on heavy ornament.
The inline is visually centered and consistent across straight and curved strokes, functioning like a highlight or engraved channel rather than a loose shadow. Curved letters (C, O, Q, S) show smooth, controlled modulation, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) keep sharp, chiseled endpoints that enhance the dramatic sparkle at larger sizes.
