A high-contrast italic serif with a sharp, calligraphic construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper into pointed terminals and wedge-like serifs, with subtle flaring at many stroke endings and a consistent rightward slant. Curves are taut and smooth, counters are relatively open, and joins are clean, giving the letterforms a polished, contemporary Didone-like rhythm while retaining a slightly hand-driven edge. The numeral set follows the same contrast and italic flow, with crisp diagonals and fine hairlines that emphasize a sleek, vertical sparkle in text.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and poster typography where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short, prominent text blocks or pull quotes, particularly when a luxe, italicized voice is desired.
The overall tone is sophisticated and high-end, projecting a fashion-editorial elegance with a theatrical, razor-sharp finish. Its energetic italic movement adds a sense of speed and glamour, while the extreme contrast and pointed details keep it feeling assertive and attention-grabbing rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion italic serif with dramatic contrast and refined finishing, balancing crisp, print-like sharpness with a lightly calligraphic flair for elevated display typography.
Spacing in the samples reads even and deliberate, supporting smooth word shapes despite the strong contrast. The design’s thin hairlines and delicate terminals are visually prominent, especially in larger sizes where the tapering details and flared endings become a key part of the personality.
