A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines, strong vertical stress, and sharply bracketed wedge serifs. Curves are taut and glossy, with crisp entry/exit strokes and frequent teardrop/ball terminals that give many joins a calligraphic snap. Proportions feel slightly narrow and upright in the capitals, while the italic slant and lively stroke modulation create a varied rhythm across words. Numerals and capitals show pronounced thick–thin transitions and pointed finishing strokes, producing a polished, display-leaning texture.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine-style layouts, and brand marks where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It also works well for invitations and luxury packaging where a refined, formal voice is desired. In smaller sizes or low-resolution contexts, its fine hairlines and sharp details may call for generous sizing and careful reproduction.
The font reads as luxurious and fashion-forward, with a poised, dramatic tone typical of high-end editorial typography. Its sharp contrasts and sparkling details convey sophistication and a sense of ceremony, while the italic movement adds flair and momentum.
Designed to evoke a classic high-fashion italic with crisp, high-contrast construction and stylish terminals, prioritizing elegance and visual impact. The letterforms aim for a sleek, modernized take on traditional text-serifs, tailored for display-oriented typography and sophisticated branding.
Capitals maintain a clean, sculpted silhouette with minimal ornament, letting contrast and terminals carry the personality. Lowercase forms appear more animated, with pronounced hooks and tapered joins that can create a shimmering texture in larger text settings. The overall color is light in the hairlines and dense in the stems, making spacing and size especially influential on readability.
