A high-contrast italic serif with crisp hairline serifs and sharply tapered terminals. Stems swell and thin dramatically, producing a bright, sparkling texture, while the italic angle is pronounced and consistent. Capitals are wide and poised with long, blade-like entry strokes and clean, bracketless-looking serifs; several letters show calligraphic inflections and subtle swash tendencies (notably in Q and some lowercase joins). The lowercase has a smooth, flowing rhythm with narrow joins, teardrop-like ends, and a slightly “high-waisted” feel in curved letters; figures are similarly italicized and stylized, with delicate hairlines and distinctive foot/flag details.
Well suited to fashion and lifestyle headlines, magazine decks, and luxury brand touchpoints where a polished italic voice is desired. It can also work for invitations, certificates, and elegant book or chapter titling, especially where ample size and contrast-friendly printing or screens preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward polish. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic movement convey sophistication and a sense of high-end formality rather than casual warmth.
Designed to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic with a contemporary editorial sheen, prioritizing elegance, movement, and sharp detail. The letterforms aim for striking display impact while retaining enough conventional structure to remain readable in short passages.
At text sizes the thin hairlines and sharp joins create a lively, shimmering color that benefits from generous spacing and high-quality reproduction. The italic forms are expressive—especially in the Q, g, and several numerals—giving the face a distinctive signature in headlines and display settings.
