A delicate, high-contrast serif with a distinctly vertical rhythm, pairing razor-thin hairlines with stronger vertical stems. Serifs are sharp and clean with minimal bracketing, and terminals often finish in fine, tapered points that emphasize a polished, drawn-with-a-pen precision. Proportions are compact and tall, with narrow letterforms and generous inner whitespace; round letters stay tightly controlled, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) read as slender and crisp. The lowercase shows a moderate x-height and graceful ascenders, with single-storey a and g, a compact e, and fine joins that keep counters open but airy at text sizes.
This style excels in large sizes where its hairlines and sharp serifs can remain intact—magazine headlines, book or journal titling, fashion and beauty campaigns, premium packaging, and elegant poster typography. It can work for short pull quotes or carefully set subheads when given ample size, leading, and contrast against the background.
The tone is poised and luxurious, evoking the gloss of fashion and cultural publishing. Its extreme delicacy and crisp contrast give it a dramatic, sophisticated presence that feels premium and formal rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classic high-fashion serif voice: maximum elegance through strong vertical structure, fine detailing, and crisp, restrained shapes that create dramatic contrast in display typography.
In the sample text, the hairlines become a defining feature, producing a shimmering texture and emphasizing spacing and line breaks. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with slender strokes and high contrast that suit display use more than dense UI settings.
