A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced vertical stress and razor-thin hairlines against heavier stems. Letterforms are generally wide with generous bowls and open counters, while the italic angle and tapered joins create a swift, calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharp with minimal bracketing, and many terminals end in pointed or softly flared strokes that emphasize brightness and snap. The lowercase shows a moderate x-height with elegant ascenders/descenders and a distinctly drawn italic ‘a’, ‘e’, and long, sleek ‘f’, contributing to a lively texture in text.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, brand marks, beauty/fashion campaigns, premium packaging, and large-format posters where the fine hairlines can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling, particularly when ample size and good reproduction conditions preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is polished and aspirational, with a fashion-forward elegance typical of luxury and editorial typography. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic movement convey sophistication and a sense of speed, making it feel more expressive than neutral.
This font appears designed to deliver a contemporary Didone-like italic voice: striking contrast, elegant proportions, and a flowing, editorial cadence. The goal seems to be visual impact with refined detail, prioritizing sophistication and style over utilitarian text neutrality.
In the samples, the contrast and delicate hairlines become especially prominent at larger sizes, where the crisp serifs and pointed terminals read as intentional detailing. The numerals share the same sleek, high-contrast construction, with curved figures showing strong thick–thin modulation.
