This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced vertical stress and very thin hairlines set against heavy main strokes. Serifs are sharp and refined, often tapering into delicate points, and several letters feature softly calligraphic terminals and occasional swash-like hooks. The italic slant is consistent and energetic, with wide, open counters in round letters and a generally spacious, upscale rhythm. Lowercase forms show a moderate x-height with long, expressive ascenders and descenders, and the numerals and capitals maintain the same crisp contrast and sculpted, sculptural presence.
It is well suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, event titles, and elegant invitations where high contrast can shine. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers in editorial layouts, especially when given generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is luxurious and dramatic, evoking fashion and editorial typography with a classical, high-end polish. The sharp contrast and expressive italics add theatricality, while the controlled structure keeps it formal and composed.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, attention-grabbing italic with a distinctly high-fashion, high-contrast voice—pairing crisp, modern sharpness with selective calligraphic flourishes for expressive display typography.
Some glyphs incorporate distinctive curved entry/exit strokes (notably in letters like J, Q, f, g, and y), which adds flourish and personality. At smaller sizes, the extremely fine hairlines and tight internal details may read more delicate than robust, while at display sizes the contrast and swashes become a defining feature.
