A highly stylized italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The letterforms are expansive and open, with long, tapered entry/exit strokes and fine, pointed serifs that read as sharp wedges rather than brackets. Curves are smooth and glossy, with a flowing, calligraphic rhythm; bowls and rounds feel stretched and generous, while joins and terminals often finish in needle-like tips. Spacing appears deliberately airy, giving the glyphs room to show their contrast and sweeping italic motion.
Best suited to large-size typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, branding wordmarks, and poster titles where its hairline details and italic flow can remain clear. It can also work for short editorial subheads or chapter openers when ample size and spacing are available.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, evoking high-end editorial typography and fashion mastheads. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italics convey sophistication, theatricality, and a slightly romantic, display-forward sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic voice for display and editorial settings, prioritizing elegance and motion over utilitarian text neutrality. Its sweeping forms and needle-fine details suggest a focus on luxury signaling and expressive headline impact.
The figures and capitals share the same hairline detailing and sweeping movement, with particularly delicate horizontal strokes and crisp terminals. At smaller sizes, the finest strokes may visually recede, while at larger sizes the sharp detailing and italic momentum become the primary character.
