A sharply contrasted italic serif with pronounced vertical stress and extremely thin hairlines set against weighty main strokes. Terminals are crisp and tapered, with delicate, pointed serifs that read almost like pen-finished cuts. The italic forms show a lively, calligraphic rhythm—narrow joins and swelling curves—while counters stay relatively open, keeping the texture bright despite the contrast. Capitals feel tall and display-leaning, and the overall spacing produces a shimmering, high-fashion color on the line.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine decks, and high-impact display settings where the contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also support premium branding and packaging, especially for beauty, fashion, and hospitality, where an elegant italic voice is desirable.
The tone is elegant and assertive, combining refinement with a sense of theatrical flourish. Its steep contrast and sweeping italics evoke luxury publishing, couture branding, and classic romance without feeling overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic high-contrast serif experience in an italic-forward, display-ready voice, emphasizing sharp hairlines, sculpted curves, and energetic rhythm for expressive typography.
Several letters feature distinctive italic swashes and emphatic entry/exit strokes, giving the font a spirited, bespoke feel. Numerals mirror the letterforms with curvy profiles and strong thick–thin modulation, reinforcing a cohesive, display-forward character.
