A stylized serif with an italic posture and pronounced, high-waisted proportions. Strokes are sharply tapered with frequent needle-like terminals and small flared serif gestures rather than heavy bracketed feet. Curves are drawn with a calligraphic sweep, producing distinctive notches and hairline entry/exit strokes, while counters stay relatively open. Overall spacing and rhythm feel lively and slightly irregular in a deliberate way, emphasizing silhouette and contrasty edges over strict text-face uniformity.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style editorial settings, branding, and display typography where its sharp details can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes, packaging, and upscale event materials, especially at larger sizes with generous leading.
The font conveys an elegant, fashion-forward tone with a dramatic, curated feel. Its sharp terminals and swooping curves add a sense of sophistication and personality, reading as boutique and design-led rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended as a decorative, contemporary serif that borrows from calligraphic italic construction to create a distinctive, high-fashion display voice. It prioritizes expressive silhouettes, crisp terminals, and an airy page color to stand out in titles and brand marks.
Uppercase forms show strong, sculpted profiles with thin connecting strokes and crisp, blade-like finishing. Lowercase leans toward a handwritten italic model, with single-storey forms and expressive joins; the numerals share the same tapered, calligraphic energy. The overall color on the page is light and airy, with conspicuous sparkle from hairlines and pointed terminals.
