A delicate serif italic with extreme thick–thin modulation and long, tapered terminals. The letterforms are tall and compact, with tight apertures and a pronounced rightward slant that produces a sleek vertical rhythm. Serifs are sharp and minimal, often resolving into fine points and hairline beaks rather than broad brackets, while curves show crisp entry/exit strokes and a controlled, pen-like swelling. The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with narrow proportions and elegant, thin connecting strokes.
This face suits high-end display work such as fashion headlines, mastheads, perfume and cosmetics packaging, and upscale branding systems. It can also work well for invitations or short editorial callouts where its refined contrast and compact italic rhythm can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, projecting a couture, magazine-forward elegance. Its fine hairlines and dramatic contrast read as sophisticated and formal, with a distinctly contemporary editorial sheen.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on high-contrast serif italics—prioritizing elegance, dramatic stroke contrast, and a sleek, space-saving silhouette for premium display typography.
The italic construction is assertive, with flowing joins and elongated ascenders/descenders that create a lively, calligraphic cadence. Counters can become quite tight in places, and the sharp hairlines and pointed terminals emphasize a crisp, refined texture at display sizes.
