A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a crisp, hairline finish. Stems are predominantly straight and vertical, while bowls and rounds are drawn with clean, taut curves and a distinctly vertical stress. Serifs are fine and sharp rather than bracketing heavily, giving terminals a precise, cut-paper feel. Proportions lean tall and statuesque in the capitals, with open counters and generous internal whitespace; spacing reads slightly expanded, reinforcing a light, airy texture at display sizes.
This face is well suited to headlines, magazine typography, lookbooks, and brand identities that benefit from a premium, minimal, high-contrast serif. It can work for short pull quotes, titles, and packaging or beauty/luxury applications where detail and elegance are prioritized over rugged small-size readability.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a poised, fashion-forward character. Its razor-thin details and calm rhythm convey restraint and sophistication more than warmth, suggesting luxury and editorial refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice through extreme contrast, fine serifs, and tall proportions, creating a clean, luxurious silhouette that stands out in display and editorial contexts.
In the text sample, the hairlines and fine serifs create a sparkling texture that favors larger settings, where contrast and details remain clear. The design maintains a consistent, disciplined construction across upper- and lowercase, with particularly graceful curves in round letters and a refined presence in numerals.
